Re-Direct Link In Navigator Bar

How do I get this to work?

This is what I want. In the navigation bar, there is numerous "topics" already there. [FAQ, Members, Portal, Etc] How do I create one of those [obviously create new webpage] so when I click the link, it re-directs to another site? [I know there is a re-direct forum option but I don't want to use that, I just want it in the navigator bar, plus I have seen this on other Zetaboard Forums]

I'm not exactly sure if there's a way to do this without javascript or meta tags, so use the following way if no one posts a better one in a day or two. :)

Navigate to ACP -> Board Customization -> Website Maker -> Create New Webpage.
Set Page ID to anything you like. Set Page Title to the name of the link. Set Page Content to this:
Quote:
 

Redirecting...
<script type="text/javascript">window.location.href='http://google.com';</script>
<noscript><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://google.com"></noscript>


Change the bold text to the URL of the site you would like to redirect to.

Now submit the page. You should find a new link on your nav bar that when clicked, first redirects you to a ZB page, and then immediately to the site you set in page content.

If you don't like how it first goes to another ZB page, link me to a forum that has the redirect link you liked. I'll check it out there.

I apologize in advance if this is an ACP option. XD

If what Choco has posted isn't what you're referring to, you can add new links to the #submenu (that's it's ID name) pick a code from the code index under 'Template/Theme Modifications'.

None of those is what I'm referring to.

Choco, the board that use to have the re-direct link that I explained just took it off. Good timing huh?

I don't want the link to go to another ZB page, I want it simply to redirect to the site that I'm linking instead.

Haze, that is definitely awesome timing. :P

Have you tried my code? It'll redirect almost immediately.

The code works perfect Choco.

All in all, I don't like how it re-directs to the ZB Webpage but I'll deal with it. I swear the Re-Direct link I saw on the other site didn't re-direct to the ZB page first. Although, I could be wrong. Thanks alot!

EDIT: Oh, is there a way to get rid of the unwanted links in the navigation bar? [FAQ, Etc] I looked in the code index and I couldn't find a code to remove 'em. Unless I accidentally overlooked the code.
