Tabbed panel

Permalink
Hi,
Could anyone point me to a tutorial or explain how we do to allow editing of tabbed panels ? Let's say I have a tabbed panel and want the user to be able to change the content of each tab ... How would this be achieved ? Many thanks

You make something editable by using C5 blocks (off the shelf or writing your own or using a generator such as the Designer Content addon) or writing a single page containing a form to update.

Item 1 above, Magic Tabs, is a block you can use on a page to seperate other sets of blocks into tabs. You then edit the other blocks in the usual way.

Item 2 above is a coding technique you can use when coding your own block or single page interfaces.

Hio John,

Are there any tutorials about how to use Magic tabs?

I go to add a block - magic tabs - but that does nto appear the way to do it..

It doesnt seem to work like pro news or pro events.. we just want to add some tabs.

ANY tutorial or instructions for users would be very helpful.

Just SOME kind of instructions would go a long way

thnaks for your helpo

Best

Hi,

Apologies for the above.. ive foud the solution..

It was not all the obious how to get started.

Step 1: Add block.. (the area to name the block is not market out.. so it is easy to miss)

Step 2: drag existing blocks below each tab

Best

Hi Charlie

Sorry for the delay in responding. In general, for addon specific help, please use the forum for magic tabs (from the magic tabs addon page) or a support request (also from the magic tabs addon page) . That way I get notified by email, so there is no risk of my missing it as there would be with posting to the general forums here.

With respect to your question, you just insert a magic tabs block between other blocks where you want each tab to start. If adding tabs to existing content, this means adding a tab block at the end of an area and then moving it to the appropriate location within the area.
