Additional Links in Navigation Bar

[Adriano Faria]

About This File

This application will allow you to add up to five new links to your navigation bar.

Notes:

• It works exacly like new links created by Pages or even like Commerce (Support and Store links): they can only be moved together. You can't separate the links. This is due to how the navigation bar works (links grouped by app).
• You can't set links to open on a new tab/window. This is also due to how the navigation bar works.

It doesn't tell much. Open your FTP and take a screenshot of your applications folder.

[Adriano Faria]

Probably the bug I linked affected the install. Tried now on my RC 7 install and showed an error. I will export it again when I have some free time, today or tomorrow.

I'll post here on this topic when it's done.

[Adriano Faria]

@salue, all the process was redone on a RC 7 install: exported and installed. All works fine.

What's New in Version 1.0.1:

• Added per link setting to open link on a new tab/window

[demoneyezer]

Thank you very much for this one, works great on my test board 4.0.6.

I would like to know though where I can set group permissions to view the links or not...

​IPS4 doesn't has this feature for its nav links (at least till 4.0.2: http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/404701-howwhere-do-i-hide-an-app-tab-from-specific-groups/) , so I can't set permission on something that can't be checked. What you can do is disable for everybody, which doesn't make sense, or leave it enabled for everybody.

EDIT: just checked on 4.0.5 install of client, still not an option on 4.0.5. You can only set the visibility to ON or OFF, but you can't choose groups like you could on IPB 3.4:

[demoneyezer]

Bummer, I guess we have to wait until IPS comes with a solution for this then? The links plugin like I would like to use it would only contain information for registered members only, not for guests...

Thanks for the reply anyway Adriano, good job on this though...

[demoneyezer]

Any updates on the group permissions settings so far?

Me ? No. This will be a CORE feature, not per app level.

[Trevor Carey]

Any way of putting the links in a certain order?

[Adriano Faria]

It SHOULD display the order that it's there: lunk1, link2, link3, etc.

I have no idea why it does not appears right on menu. Certainly it's something on menu generation, 'cause all I can do is done: a file extension per menu, like Commerce.

I'll try to get sone reply from IPS.

Sadly it doesn't. It seems to display them is a random order.

Thanks for checking it out.

Awesome!

But is there anyway we can use our own icon? you know the icon in front of the tab name?

[Loader69]

Hi, I think that the plugin doesn't work on IPB 4.1.7...If enable and add link but it not display on forum index.

[Adriano Faria]

This is to be used on IPS 4.0.X only. 4.1 has the Menu Manager where you can add custom links.

[Pedro Ibáñez]

Hi,

It doesn't appear in the navigation bar, what i'm doing wrong?
