MyBB Community Forums

I'm not really up on all of the aspects of mybb. Is there a way to add a new navigation section to the menu of usercp, with sections of your choice from within a module/plugin?

You would have to modify the usercpnav templates.

If I go about this, do you think the new release of MyBB will totally flip things up-side-down and make me start all over?

I don't think the next release would affect your templates much, but further than that I can't really say at this point since it's a long way off.

When I try to edit things in "User Control Panel Templates" it doesn't let me. Says forbidden

It's probably a problem with mod_security being installed on your server. You can search these forums for mod_security for other threads relating to this problem.

This problem should be fixed in the next major version.

Huh. I didn't even think about that. You are correct

I've also problems to expand the User Control Panel Templates
It says: You don't have permission to access /admin/templates.php on this server.

I was looking for the template to delete the avatar url in the userCP

this solved the Forbidden problem for me

Another solution is to insert your link into the language file. Open the file usercpnav.lang.php and search for

$l['ucp_nav_edit_profile'] = "Edit Profile";

Replace the line with:

$l['ucp_nav_edit_profile'] = "Edit Profile</li><li><a href=\"http://www.link.com\">Your Link</a>";

Of course you can change the position of your link by changing another line.
