[HOW TO - vB4] Remove the vB Default Navtabs

Here is a quick article on how to remove some of the default vbulletin navtabs from the navbar template.

Removing the What's New navtab:

Find (near the top of the template):
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search'">
Change to:
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab']">
Find and Remove (about 2/3 down):
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT == 'search'">
            <vb:if condition="$show['member']">
            <li  class="selected"><a class="navtab" href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getnew&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase getnew_tab}</a>
...
a bunch more stuff inbetween to remove
...
            </li>
            </vb:if>
        <vb:elseif condition="$show['member']" />
            <li><a class="navtab" href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getnew&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase getnew_tab}</a></li>
        <vb:else />
            <li><a class="navtab" href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getdaily&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase getnew_tab}</a></li>
        </vb:if>
SAVE

In a default navbar template, after removing the chunk of code above, you should end up with this in the template where the code used to be:
Code:
        {vb:raw template_hook.navtab_middle}

        {vb:raw template_hook.navtab_end}
Removing the Home navtab:
Go to Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager > Product: vBulletin CMS > Navbar: Insert CMS Navbar Entry
Plugin is Active: NO
SAVE


Removing the Blogs navtab:
Go to Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager > Product: vBulletin Blog > Navbar: Eval Blog Link Template and Validate Styleid
Find and Remove (or comment out):
Code:
if (defined('VBBLOG_CACHED_TEMPLATES'))
{
    if (defined('VBBLOG_SCRIPT'))
    {
        $vbulletin->options['selectednavtab'] = 'vbblog';
    }
    $template_hook['navtab_middle'] .= vB_Template::create('blog_navbar_link')->render();
        $template_hook['navbar_getnew_menu'] .= vB_Template::create('blog_navbar_whatsnew_link')->render();
    if ($show['blog_search'])
    {
        $template_hook['navbar_search_menu'] .= vB_Template::create('blog_navbar_search')->render();
    }
}
SAVE

Removing the Forum navtab:

Find and remove (starts near the very top):
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search'">
  ...
a bunch more stuff inbetween to remove
...
        <vb:else />
            <li><a class="navtab" href="{vb:link forumhome}">{vb:rawphrase forum}</a></li>
        </vb:if>
SAVE

Hello,

I want to move the Forum tab at the middle and then a custom tab at the left.
I have hooked my custom tab with $template_hook['navtab_left'].

I do not find $template_hook['navtab_left'] for the Forum tab. I do not know where to put
$template_hook['navtab_middle'] for this default tab.

Help!

Laurent

The Forum tab doesn't use a template_hook since it is entered right into the navbar template.

What do you want in the middle? You would change the template_hook in the plugin to use the one you want. If you want to see exactly where they are located, then look in the navbar template.

You will have to add any navtab you want to add to the navtab_left template_hook if you want it to the left of the forum navtab.

Well, that's not the case.

I hook on the middle for my custom tab and it works.
When I hook on the left (what i want), the custom tab disappear... because of the forum tab which is located to the left by default... I suppose.

Sad to see a such basic feature does not exist on vBulletin

It works just fine on my test site, so maybe your code is incorrect? Or perhaps you didn't try changing the Execution Order of the plugin?

First of all thanks for your answers Lynne,

I have just changed the following line in the plugin (MediaLibrary):
$template_hook['navtab_middle'] .= $templater->render();
to
$template_hook['navtab_left'] .= $templater->render();

then after your post I have changed the order from 5 to 1. (but I do not well if it's correct)
The Media Library tab still does not appear. :'(

So the MediaLibrary tab shows up if you have it set to navtab_middle but not if you have it set to navtab_left? Have you looked in your navbar template to verify you have that template_hook there?
