Original thread (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=234240&goto=newpost) posted on vBulletin.com by : John_770 on : Sun, 24 Jun 2007 01:20:14 GMT
How to Add a Custom Menu Group to AdminCP]What: If there are items within the AdminCP which you utilize often and wish to have quick access to, you can create a custom Menu Group which contains items of your choosing.
Example: AdminCP functions that you use frequently are the Style Manager, Forum Manager, Forum Permissions, Search for User, and Usergroup Manager. Instead of having to navigate to the 'Styles & Templates', the 'Forums & Moderators', the 'Users', or the 'Usergroup' menu groups where the specific functions are located, you can create a custom Menu Group which contains the functions grouped together in one easy to get to location.
How-to: Paste the below text into an html editor, save as cpnav_my_links.xml and upload to forum/includes/xml. If you are currently viewing your AdminCP, close and restart the browser, login to your Admin CP, and you will see the 'My Links' menu block in the left menu.
Code:
style_manager
template.php?do=modify
forum_manager
forum.php?do=modify
forum_permissions
forumpermission.php?do=modify
search_for_users
user.php?do=modify
usergroup_manager
usergroup.php?do=modify
The above contains the items mentioned in the example above - for other items, open cpnav_vbulletin.xml (located at forum/includes/xml) and cut and paste the items you prefer. Additionally, if you would like to add your own links, simple replace phrase with text. Example:
Code:
