[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

Thanks Lynne. Can you tell me how to add Groups and Albums on the main nav bar?

Help - it is not clear to me - which template I should be looking in to get rid of the What's new button.

As to my previous question - I got information from another article. Thanks.

Sorry, I didn't realize I had not put that in there! It is the navbar template you need to edit.

Is it possible to only show certain Navtabs to certain usergroups? for example I have Downloads Tab but only want UG 8 to be able to see the tab, by default right now my navbar is getting cluttered but not all groups need to be seeing all options.

Thanks in advance.

That is not present int he default style. So, you've changed some stylevar somewhere. You should use firebug to figure out what. It's not really the scope of this article though.

Sure you can put conditions around the tabs. There are articles here on how to write conditions for only certain usergroups and then you can apply that condition to your tab.
