Forum Display Enhancements - Easy Navbar Links

Description:
This template edit displays quick and easy links to your navigation.

Installation Time: Less than 1 minute

I got the inspiration from "yoyoyoyo" who made a similar mod for 3.6.8. Although his might work fine for this also, I decided to alter it a bit and cleaned up some code.

I did PM yoyoyoyo to use a variation of his hack but, since he has not been online since September 2008, I can't get a response.

Since yoyoyoyo came up with this type of template edit, all the credit goes to him.

Here is the mod from yoyoyoyo for version 3.6.8:

Template Edit:

Styles and Templates > Style Manager > Your Style > Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates > Navbar:

In the Navbar find:

<!-- breadcrumb, login, pm info -->

Above it add:

<!-- Navbar Links -->
<div align="center">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:1px">
<tr align="center">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Your Title</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Your Title</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Your Title</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Your Title</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Your Title</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Your Title</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / Navbar Links -->

Then click Save and Reload!

Done!

OPTIONAL:

If you want to show a link only to members use this:

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Link Title Goes Here</a></td>
</if>

If you want to show a link only to members, and a different link to guests use this:

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Member Link Title Goes Here</a></td>
<else />
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Guest Link Title Goes Here</a></td>
</if>

To make the link open in a new window use this URL instead:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com" target="_blank">Link Title Goes Here</a></td>

To make the link(s) only visible to certain usergroups use this:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X, Y, Z)">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://url.com">Link Title Goes Here</a></td>
</if>

Substitute X, Y, Z with the ID numbers of the groups that you want to allow to see the link. If you only want one usergroup to be able to see the link then use: $bbuserinfo, X and substitute X with the ID number of the group that you want to allow to see the link.

Of Course you want to change the URL's to your site URL and direct the link to any site or feature you want for your site.

Any problems, let me know.

Make sure if you use this template edit to CLICK INSTALL.

If you change

<div align="center">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:1px">

to

<div class="tborder" style="padding:$stylevar[cellspacing]px; border-bottom-width:0px">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

you'll get rid of that nasty little border issue you've got on the top navbar

Your mod is great....but...1 things for sure...i need the links button scroll down, so for this examples...

Link1 | Links2 | Links3 | Link4 | Links5 | Links6

Thats ur links, but my links have about 20 links....so if i put in the navbar, can make too many links that can cunfuse for the people, so i want to make the simple for example :

LinkA v| LinksB | LinksC

And want i klik LinksA that will show :
Links1 --> go to links1 and open the new tab when user click
Links2
Links3
Links4
Links5
Links6

Like i said before, that the button on the link like USER CP links that have some down arrow, so thats make the simple links for my forum, do you have any mod for this? i will installed if you have, so sorry if my english is not so good and i hope my explanation can understand for who read my post.

Cause i had tried so many times but the down arrow button not correctly show up, just the links and not got what i want. And the condition is simple...just add that links and dont have make different about the user is login or soem guest, cause that links for connect to other website, so simple static links.

thanks alot
