The Tab And Link Manager engine is a total replacement for the default vBulletin NavBar (when installing in Total Replacement Mode), and unlike any similar products out there (free or otherwise), this product totally replaces the NavBar, there bypassing the limitations inherent in the default vBulletin NavBar. You may well have already used the free lite version of this product; Tab and Link Manager Lite that we released at vBulletin.org that gives you a limited subset of features which are present in this product.
Tab and Link Manager is designed to be used by forum administrators with absolutely no programming knowledge at all (although it can be pretty handy for administrators that have programming knowledge too).
The AdminCP utility is very easy to use, and in a few minutes can have your site's NavBar using custom tabs with links and submenu links setup how you want, in the order you want them in, and each tab, link and submenu link is individually controlled by usergroup permissions and script conditionals for more flexibility.
Although the initial installation of the product can be a little daunting for vBulletin novices, we do provide fully documented step-by-step instructions for you to follow, but you can request the Professional Installation option if you need it.
For multi-language forums, all tab, link and submenu link titles can be phrased, so different text will appear depending on which language you select.
All links and submenu links can be individually targeted to open in same web browser window/tab or another web browser window/tab.
All tabs can be positioned individually in three different locations on the NavBar.
Tabs can be one of five different types (vBulletin default type, and four custom types).
The Forum type tab is demonstated above for guests (click the Forum Type tab on the NavBar above, shows highlighting of the correct forum tab in any forum, sub-forum or thread under that tab).
The Dropdown type tab is demonstated above (click the Links tab on the NavBar above, shows a dropdown tab, with links).
However, please note that this product in no way has any control over your existing tabs, links or submenu links, it will only control the ones that have been created using this product. But fear not, you can totally replace the existing NavBar with the Tab and Link Manager engine for total control of your tabs, links and submenu links.
For a demonstration of the front-end, you can view it in action here at Wolfshead Solutions. Just use any of the tabs on our NavBar, all of which were created and are currently being rendered by this product.
To demonstate the versitility of this product, you may notice on the Products tab, the tab itself and all associated links being rendered are "SEO Friendly URLs".
To view what the back-end looks like, please refer to the screenshots tab for this product.
This product works with vBulletin's Publishing Suite (we use the Publishing Suite here, but we have disabled the CMS and Blog, as there is no need for it at the moment) as well as Forum Classic, and now works with vBulletin's Project Tools.
IMPORTANT: Just a note of caution; when you install this product in Total Replacement Mode it totally replaces the default vBulletin NavBar and any third-party products that add links and/or sub-menu links to the default tabs (Forum, What's New, Home, Blogs or Project) on the NavBar will no longer be able to add them automatically as the template hooks associated with the default tabs will no longer be available and the links and/or sub-menu links will need to be re-created in Tab and Link Manager. We only provide Tab and Link Manager xml definition files for vanilla vBulletin products (Forum Classic, Publishing Suite & Project Tools Open Source). Help with re-creating tabs, links or sub-menu links for third-party products can be asked for in the support forum for this product.
