Mark as installed, if you use it


If you like this modification please suport it in the mod of the moth poll

What does this plugin?
This plugin allows you to add new tabs in the navigation bar to link to any site you want.

Installation:
Import the xml file from the product manager..
Upload the files in the upload folder to your forums via ftp.

To add new tabs, go to:
vBulletin Options> VBH New Tabs Option


Configuration example:

AdminCP|/admincp/=>self;6
google|http://www.google.com=>self;1 2
vbulletin|http://www.vbulletin.com=>self;1 2
yahoo|http://www.yahoo.com=>self;1 2
vbulletin.org|http://www.vbulletin.org=>self;1 2

See screenshots.

To make tab selected:
This option only works if your tab links to internal files. You need to enter the THIS_SCRIPT value under the option Tabs Selected.

Also note that some areas of vBulletin already use the THIS_SCRIPT value in their code and because of this some tabs may not work correctly. A example of this would be the usercp.php file. If you make a tab linking to this file and then you enter the value 'usercp' to make it selected, the tab will be selected but also will be the forum tab. This is because vBulletin used this value in the navbar template.

You won't have problems when linking to custome pages.

I am just Double Clicking the Folder, So it is probably being added as a Zip Folder. I did unzip it and tried to add as a URL , but that didnt work either,, I have managed to add the Plug in now but with No Download Material, so it now shows in Manage Products, so can i now add the download by Editing the Plug In..

just upload the includes folder to your forum root dir..
then go to your admincp and look for the options for this addon and configure it ..

Ok, I have Downloaded file and saved to desktop Unzipped, can you explain the next stage, as i done the last stage and it said
"Please upload the file bitfield_vbhtabs.xml to /includes/xml/ before installing or upgrading"

I dont get the login ftp and go to includes\xml folder and put this file into it bitfield_vbhtabs.. Do you mean on the same install Page as the Last part, Confused on this , I did say i am not very Computer Savvy

When i install it i get issues with my styles. Does it work with 4.1.8?
The css.php file just returns /* Unable to find css sheet */

I uploaded the xml file and then imported the product afterwards.
