Hi,
I need a bit of direction to make sure I am deleting the "What's New" & Forum Tab from the right file.

I went to Style Manager - From The templates I selected Navigation / Breadcrumb then navbar

I followed your instruction but it's not saving the changes and error massage ask me to check line 184

I am using vb 4.1.7 and I need to move the 2 tabs please.

Regards

To Remove the BLOG navtab:
Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager > Product: vBulletin Blog > Navbar: Eval Blog Link Template and Validate Styleid

You can just check the box Inactive for it to disappear from the Navtab now.

I just checked all this in my 4.1.8 navbar template and it's pretty much the same. If you have a custom template, you'll have to try to figure it out yourself or ask the developer for help.

Hi Lynne,

I went through your artilce and successfully removed most navbar tabs (thanks !)

except i cannot remove the 'Forum' tab, i dont see the code that you specify needs to be removed from 'Navbar: Eval Blog Link Template and Validate Styleid', perhaps i am looking in the wrong place or because my version is new there is different code to removed. I have version. 4.1.9.

This is the code I have for 'Edit Plugin Navbar: Eval Blog Link Template and Validate Styleid'

----------
$show['canpostitems'] = (
$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['vbblog_general_permissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_vbblog_general_permissions['blog_canviewown']
AND
$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['vbblog_entry_permissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_vbblog_entry_permissions['blog_canpost']
AND
$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']
);

/*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 (STYLEID != $vbulletin->userinfo['blogstyleid'])
{
$vbulletin->userinfo['blocktext'] = '';
}

----------

Any help would be appreciated from anyone, thanks.

The Forum tab is in the navbar template, not a plugin. That plugin you are quoting is for the Blog tab. The code has changed a little, but the condition is still there - comment it out.

The remove Blog Tab info and what to take out is different than the code in the start of this Article.

Which part to remove from here:

$show['canpostitems'] = (
$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['vbblog_general_permissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_vbblog_general_permissions['blog_canviewown']
AND
$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['vbblog_entry_permissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_vbblog_entry_permissions['blog_canpost']
AND
$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']
);

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 (STYLEID != $vbulletin->userinfo['blogstyleid'])
{
$vbulletin->userinfo['blocktext'] = '';
}
