[Jake Bunce]

Go to your:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates -> navbar

Find this code. Add the code in red:



<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<div align="center">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px">
<tr align="center">
<!--<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php?$session[sessionurl]">Home</a></td>-->

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="URL">LINKED TEXT</a></td>

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
</if>
<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="register.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[register]</a></td>
</if>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="faq.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[faq]</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="memberlist.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[members_list]</a></td>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>
<if condition="$show['popups']">
<if condition="$show['searchbuttons']">
<if condition="$show['member']">

</if>
</if>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a></td>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="#" onclick="window.open('misc.php?$session[sessionurl]do=buddylist&amp;focus=1','buddylist','statusbar=no,me nubar=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,w idth=250,height=300'); return false;">$vbphrase[open_buddy_list]</a></td>
</if>
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout" onclick="return log_out()">$vbphrase[log_out]</a></td>
</if>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / nav buttons bar -->


Change URL and LINKED TEXT appropriately.

Or to add a link to the Quick Links menu:



<!-- user cp tools menu -->
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="usercptools_menu" style="display:none">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">

<tr><td class="thead">$vbphrase[quick_links]</td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="URL">LINKED TEXT</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getnew">$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]do=markread">$vbphrase[mark_forums_read]</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#" onclick="window.open('misc.php?$session[sessionurl]do=buddylist&amp;focus=1','buddylist','statusbar=no,me nubar=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,w idth=250,height=300'); return false;">$vbphrase[open_buddy_list]</a></td></tr>

<tr><td class="thead"><a href="usercp.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[user_control_panel]</a></td></tr>
<if condition="$show['siglink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editsignature">$vbphrase[edit_signature]</a></td></tr></if>
<if condition="$show['avatarlink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editavatar">$vbphrase[edit_avatar]</a></td></tr></if>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editprofile">$vbphrase[edit_profile]</a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=editoptions">$vbphrase[edit_options]</a></td></tr>

<tr><td class="thead">$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>
<if condition="$show['pmstats']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[private_messages]</a></td></tr></if>

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[my_profile]</a></td></tr>
<if condition="$show['wollink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="online.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[whos_online]</a></td></tr></if>

</table>
</div>
<!-- / user cp tools menu -->

Or to add another row of navbar links for when the first row gets too full...

This will add a second row of navbar links underneath the existing row. Edit this template:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates -> navbar

Add the red code:



</if>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / nav buttons bar -->

<!-- second nav button row -->
<div align="center">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px">
<tr align="center">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="URL">LINKED TEXT</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / second nav button row -->

<br />
<br />

<if condition="$show['popups']">
<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->


Add more instances of the blue code within the red code to add more links to that second row.

Or to add an additional popup menu to the navbar...

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates -> navbar

Find this code and add the red code:



<if condition="$show['popups']">
<if condition="$show['searchbuttons']">
<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getnew" accesskey="2">$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]</a></td>
<else />
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getdaily" accesskey="2">$vbphrase[todays_posts]</a></td>
</if>
<td id="navbar_search" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]" accesskey="4">$vbphrase[search]</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("navbar_search"); </script></td>
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid']">
<td id="usercptools" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="#usercptools">$vbphrase[quick_links]</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("usercptools"); </script></td>
</if>
<td id="mypopupmenu" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="#mypopupmenu">MENU TITLE</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("mypopupmenu"); </script></td>
<else />
<if condition="$show['searchbuttons']">


Change the MENU TITLE appropriately.

Then in that same template, scroll to the very bottom. Add the the red code:



</table>
</div>
<!-- / user cp tools menu -->
</if>

<!-- mypopupmenu -->
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="mypopupmenu_menu" style="display:none">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">

<tr><td class="thead">MENU TITLE</td></tr>
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="URL">LINKED TEXT</a></td></tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / mypopupmenu -->
<!-- / NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
</if>


Change the MENU TITLE, URL, and LINKED TEXT appropriately. Add more instances of the blue code within the red code to add more links to the popup menu.
