Nice edit thank you..

How can the added navbar links be made to open in a new window instead of navigating away from the page your on...

Reason: I added a link to my shoutcast radio station but I want the listeners to be still able to view while listening...

Regards..

Use target="_blank"

<a href="newwindow.html" target="_blank">a new window</a>

Thank You Brogan...

Damn , that was really quick...
But where would I add that , before or after

<li class="navTab PopupOpen"><a href="http://thexxxxxxxx.com/radio/" class="navLink">xxx Radio</a></li>

Thanks..

 

[Paul B]

Check the example above, it's part of the a href.

So in your case it would be <li class="navTab PopupOpen"><a href="http://thexxxxxxxx.com/radio/" class="navLink" target="_blank">xxx Radio</a></li>

Thanks Again Brogan.. Top Man.

Nice guide Jake.

One small change I would make though would be to add a guest conditional, so the tab doesn't show up if not logged in.
That can be achieved with the following:

<xen:if is="{$visitor.user_id}">
<li class="navTab PopupClosed"><a href="{xen:link account/upgrades}" class="navLink">{xen:phrase account_upgrades}</a></li>
</xen:if>

How can I set the conditional for a third party add-on tab so that only a specific group is able to see the add-on tab.

How can I show content to a specific user group?
<xen:if is="{xen:helper ismemberof, $visitor, x}">
This content will show to members of user group x only
</xen:if>

Ok I tried finding the place where to add this. Tried navigation template but that has 'extras' tab code which will apply to all the add-ons installed.
Where do I add this then for a specific add-on? For example for the LN-Blog or Xencarta.

 

[Paul B]

The conditional will only work for content in the template.

If the add-on doesn't include template edits to add a new tab then it will need to be done using usergroup permissions, if they have been implemented as part of the add-on.

Could not achieve this for the tab but opened the home page of the template and added this in two places to disable the main content and the sidebar. Done!

is it possible to add the drop down menu aswell?

I tried adding

        <!-- mytab -->
        <li class="navTab PopupClosed"><a href="www.thederp.net/pages/about-us" class="navLink">About Us</a></li>

to the navigation template but it doesn't work for some reason, I'm using xenforo 1.0.1 with the Flexile theme. Am I doing anything wrong?

 

[Paul B]

Did you add it to the correct style?

 

[xPeetey42]

Did you add it to the correct style?

I added it to the master style Added to the Flexile Master Template now, works perfect!

I've split the posts off to a new thread as this is a bit more than just adding a tab: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/how-do-i-add-a-chat-application.19435/
