Files Altered: ubbt.inc.php
/templates/default/ubbt_registerednav.tmpl
New Files: None
Database Altered: No
Info/Instructions: In the example shown in the directions I have added two extra navigation options to the registered members navigation bar, for demonstration purposes - you may only want one.
You will want to adjust the code to fit in with your site. I have also added an automatic link to take them to the edit display section, should they have not selected any extra groups to join.
This will work only if you have added the 'auto group change' mod

If the modification modifies the database, it's a good idea to backup your database before doing so.
Note: If you modify your UBB.Threads code, you may be giving up your right for "official" support from Infopop.If you need official support, you'll need to restore unmodified files.
