How make new tab?

[Guest BoardDude]

Hi,

Im having this problem.

I have created new tab for main tab list next to "forums". Lets call it "test".

Now when i click this "test" and it opens in new window.

How can i get it work inside IPB forum?

 

I guess i can make url goes to /index.php?/test/

Its not working with creating "test" folder and put "index.php/.html" inside it.

 

it opens inside forum but it says:

 

Sorry, we couldn't find that!

 

any ideas?

 

i add code to globalTemplate:

 

 <li class='left'><a href='http://test.html' title='Go to test'>test</a></li>

 

and with that index.php? it looks like this.

 

http://xxxxxxxxxxx.com/index.php?/test

 

 

 

Its in IPB 3.3.4

You only have 2 choices. Use the code inside an iframe. 

 

Or install one the apps like pages to keep it within the skin framework.

Yes iframe would be fine.

I made it in my normal webpage like that.

 

But where to add that iframe? which file?

go to your skin > global templatesearch for <foreach>add this code below 

<li id='nav_home' class='left'><a href='http://www.yoursite.com/' title='Go to Title' >Forum Name</a></li>

That was what i exactly did and it opened it new window. I was asking about that iframe but i just found it out:

<!-- ::: MAIN CONTENT AREA ::: --> and put it uder it using:

<iframe src="home.html" width="170%" height="700" frameborder="0" name="main" id="main"></iframe>

now it works great... thanks anyway

 

That wasnt exactly what i was looking for but it can be done with that way. That iframe area is just there all the time. Thats not good.

Im trying to find does it has "auto resize" option. I guess it doesnt.

Ok, here is next problem. I want that only registered users have access to that new tab i created.

How can i fix that ?

Now everyone can view it.

Just change to this

<if test="$this->memberData['member_id']>0"><iframe src="home.html" width="170%" height="700" frameborder="0" name="main" id="main"></iframe></if>

I put the code under little different place but it works great!
