Version: 2.0.2
File Edits: 0
Template Edits: 2
Difficulty: Easy


Description:
You can add links or multiple menus to the navbar quickly through a form. Specify which usergroups can see each link via the permissions system.


F.A.Q.
Q: Why aren't the links showing?
A: Edit the link in your Admin CP and check the usergroup permissions

Q: All the links I made from the last version are gone
A: Go into phpmyadmin and select your vbulletin database.
Browse the table named "custom_droplinks". Change all the "catid's" with 0 to 1.
Go into your ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links --> Modify/Delete The links should show up under the first category. You can edit the links from here and select a different category to place it in.

Q: How do I get the links to appear on vBAdvanced?
A: Go into your ACP --> vBa CMPS --> Default Settings
Look for "Portal Output Global Variables". Add the following into the text area.

custom_singlelinks
custom_droplinks
custom_droplinks_cat

If you install this mod please press the "Install" button.

--Change Log--
1.0.0 - Initial Release

1.0.1 - took out the code that automatically added HTML to the navbar. I thought having it do it automatically was cool but can be annoying because you can't easily customize the class or placement

2.0.0 - Added the functionality to add multiple drop down menus

2.0.1 - Added missing table prefixes

and a little question: to access the edit page i browse directly www.site.com/admincp/admin_custom_links.php

It should be under "Announcements" in the Admin CP.

By any chance can this be made to add like not only a drop down but an actual link to the lets see donators page, or affs. page or w.e other place I want a link to?

That was already discussed. It has to do with vbulletin's coding. I don't know how to get around it.

Installed but is not working correctly.
Extras Drop down menu not working, If you add a link as a drop down is will appear as stand alone and not drop down.

If you click on the extra drop down only shows extras which is not selectable or active.

I have Vb V 3.6.0

Please could help us resolve this bug.

Thank you.

P.S. I did add display Number, but does not position link.
