The Arcive of vBulletin Modifications Site.

vBulletin 4.2.1

When I click on Add Tab, Product has no drop-down selection as shown in earlier examples of how to use Navigation Manager. It just defaults (hard coded) to vbulletin. Is this by design, or are we missing something?

Looks like the product is hard-coded to vbulletin unless you have your site in debug mode.

So new tabs can only be added to Product vBulletin; you can't add tabs to vBulletin CMS or vBulletin Blog which (apparently) you were able to do 'earlier' on?

You can add them in debug mode.

Interesting... I rarely use navigation since we use our own menus. Our development stations are always in debug mode so I would have never caught on to that until I had a problem. Good tip!

Just to be clear on this.

You can add tabs in the navigation manager, regardless of mode.

However, you cannot assign them to a custom product unless you are in debug mode.
Assigning them to a product other than vbulletin is a development function, something you would only need to do if you planned on exporting the product.

Thanks Paul for the clarification. I thought this was something new in the latest navigational manager in which I have not looked at the code. I am still running v4.20.

Thanks for setting me straight.
