Create a Tab to NavBar using product file

[VnSlo]

Even if vB5 utilizes a powerful Navigation Manager, it lacks the automation procedure for adding a Tab using a product file like version 4.2. In this tutorial I'll try to show you a way to add a Tab in the Nav Bar.

There are only 2 steps to do it:

1.- Adding the Tab (CODES section)

        <code version="1.0.0">
            <installcode><![CDATA[
$assertor = vB::getDbAssertor();
$navbar = $assertor->getRow('site',array('siteid' => 1));
$array = unserialize($navbar['headernavbar']);
$newarray = array();
foreach($array as $key => $value){
         $newarray[] = $value;
         }

$newarray[] = array ('title' => 'navbar_my', 'url' => 'my.php', 'newWindow' => 0 );

$assertor->update('site', array(
                'headernavbar' => serialize($newarray)
            ),
            array('siteid' => 1)
        );
]]></installcode>
            <uninstallcode />
        </code>

2.- Assign the Phrase (GLOBAL section)

<phrase name="navbar_my" date="1350240918" username="vb5admin" version="1.0.0"><![CDATA[My ]]></phrase>

Hope that this short code will helps you in case that you want to move your mods to vB5 Connect.
