Default General Questions

Hello Everyone,

We just have some general questions that we would like the answer to. Thank you for anyone who replies. Our questions are as follows:
  1. How do we create an additional page in vBulletin (our rules pages)? How do we add this link to our navigation bar at the top of the page?
  2. How can we change the color scheme of vBulletin from the default colors?
  3. How can we use the vBulletin Icon in the address bar (favicon.ico) for our website?

Kind Regards,
Roman.

1. How to create your own vBulletin-powered page! (uses vB templates) and
How To Add Additional Links To Your Navbar

2. Refer this http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/color_maps_intro

3. Upload the favicon.ico into forums root and add this code in <head> tag at the top of headinclude template

Code:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" >

Thank you for those links. I have a few questions about the navigation bar and the tutorial link you gave me.

Which file exactly should I be going to and adding in this code? The article does not specify what to edit or how to get there. How would I do the inverse, such as removing a link from the navbar preinstalled by vBulletin?

Thank you for your help so far.

EDIT :: Also, if possible, I would like to know if there is a way to backup the database of vBulletin incrementally while on the last day of each week a full. Thanks again.

Kind Regards,

All navbar links are added in a template called 'navbar'. Look for code such as:

Code:
<if condition="$show['member']">
            <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
        </if>
And add the custom links under them. To remove default links, just search the default name or file name in the navbar template, and remove code that is similar to the above which needs removing.

<font face="Arial">Thank you for the reply cheat-master30. Your instructions worked, and I got the new link into the navigation bar. Much appreciarted.

Do you have any advice on scheduling a backup with vBulletin? Our hosting panel is cPanel so it doesn't support the feature to automatically backup the database at any given time.

Kind Regards,</font>
