   How do I make a navigational tab go to a different web page like Myspace or something like that, rather than link to a separate page? With the iNove 1.4.5 template..

   in the custom field put redirect
   in the value field put the actual url you want tab to go to
   save custom field

   I think i didnt explain myself right!! :-/

   I want the tab to go to a different webpage such as a Forum. Instead of opening a page within my site.

   There is an very interesting writeup about using the custom field for a redirect here, if you are interested.

   [EDIT]

   I have done this on 2.8.1 beta, (1) and it does work.
