Although it is now actually more "lite" than ever, I feel that pro is a good evolutionary step in the naming convetion. I also renamed it so that we could get away from that old TPL thread as it was getting a big large and unruly. A new contrib name and a new thread to go with it for a fresh start.

Some Features of TPP:

• Global tabs can be set from the Admin configuration area to apply tabs instantly to all products
• Tabs can also be added manually to product decriptions
• All tab calculations are in the module file only. No more additional template files.
• There are only 2 little code snippets required to add tabs to your custom layouts, or use the included product template.
• Fully w3 validated
• Reverts back to normal view when javascript is disabled
• Does not change any data, leaving SEO, Meta, and product information intact.
• Uses built-in Zen-Cart modules for creation of Zen-based tabs. Should prove transparent to future ZC releases.

TPP uses a completely new method of tabbing. Instead of relying on PHP checks to see if a tabbed version of a module needs to be used and the non-tabbed version needs to be skipped, the new tabs use some extremely creative javascript to create the tabs, and hide the rest.

The first version is a BETA. It has been fully tested but I just know someone might find some little snag so I will give you guys a chance at it before I make it a full final release.

I'd also like to hear your comments, questions, advice, and/or insults as you what you dislike or would like to see in future versions.

I am using Zen Cart 1.3.8. I just installed TPP. After I installed the add on, It appears my redirects are not working. I click on the "webpage" link, it no longer works. I click on the checkout, it no longer works. Any clues as to where to look. The website is at:

http://www.ngtservices.com/Products/OurCatalog/

Thanks!

Found the error. I had installed Extra Description Files prior to installation of TPP. There were a couple extra blank lines at the end of one of the .php files. removed the lines all is right with the world:smile:

I am trying to set up TPP on my site - I have it basically working, but there is one thing that is baffling me.

What I am trying to achieve is basically the same as the example in the Sub Tags section of the readme. I would like 2 tabs. The first should have the product description and add to cart button. The second tab should simply have some text on it.

Following the example I have my product description as:

Code:

---

<!--%Product Description%-->
<p>This is the description of the bag.</p>

<!--*sub_AddToCart(1)*-->


<!--%Manufacturer%-->

<p>info here</p>

---

In admin I have Global Enable Tabs = 1 and all other options set to 0.

The two tabs are fine, but the problem is, the add to cart button is not on the tab. Firebug confirms that it is outside the tpptabBlock div.

I have tried this with a plain vanilla install and have the same problem. :(

Using latest versions of both Zencart and TPP.

Any suggestions?

Dave

I am still in need of someone's help to figure out why TPP is preventing me from being able to move all my extra product info up [attributes, buttons, etc].

I have provided a screenshot to show how the page looks now vs what I am looking to acheive.

Thanks in advance!:clap:

Will using the tabbed content affect SEO since the content is embeded in javascript I'm assuming.

In your stylesheet, set a height against #tpptabBlock and it will do what you want - 200px appears to be about right.

As it happens, your layout is almost identical to mine - pic on the left, tabs on the right. :smile:

It never even ocurred to me to use negative values, however, it doesn't work for me:(

updated DEMO link. Includes tab style switcher

I'm hoping someone out there can help me. I have installed the PPP Mod and it is (sort of) working fine. The only thing is that I do not actually have tabs - instead I have a bulleted list. Everything else is working fine but for this list of bullets where there should be tabs!

I saw a reference somewhere in this thread to stylesheet_new, that wasn't in the download I uploaded, is that where I'm going wrong?

Hoping someone can help, this is driving me nuts!
