Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread

[kellyf]

Where can I find Tabbed Products Pro readme file? My designer installed it but I don't know how to make it work. It really isn't very self explanatory in the admin panel. How do I add tabs? I want a tab that says "ingredients", and one that says "benefits" along with the ones that are already there such as "product description, reviews, details". Thank you for any help!

Using ZC 1.39 and I installed Tabbed Products Pro 1.07

One thing I never considered prior to installing it is that it appears to be GLOBAL, meaning, in my case it's either ON every product_info_display page or OFF every product_info_display page

Is there anyway to simply add tabs on some pages and not on others? There's a lot of pages where the tabs aren't needed, nor desired.

Thanks in advance!

After further review, I see in a note that you can turn globals on, but than use an "IgnoreGlobals" tag so tabs only appear on the pages you want. Two thoughts though...

1) I have over 1000 products and only about 50 I want to use the tabs on, so is there an easier way to turn off globals on the other 750? I fear I see a lot of hand coding in my future. I'd hate to have to go into all 950 products and hand code the globals off. Is there another approach?

2) If I do have to do as stated above, how do I use the "IgnoreGlobals" tab? Do I put it at the top of my page like this: <!--%IgnoreGlobals%-->

Thanks again.

It's official —##I'm am idiot. I apologize to all! Disregard my previous posts. I was seeing global "details" and "reviews" and wasn't thinking clearly. Obviously, if I turn off ALL the global settings (except the first one), I then have control over wqhich pages display the tabs. Thank you and excuse my error. Great mod! It should be a huge help for us!

Hi

i have installed TPP 1.09 on ZenCart 1.5 and the admin is not working correctly.
When i click the Tabbed Products Pro / Configuration in my Admin then
the menu is displayed but i can not change any value.
Also i see menuitems jump up and down on a click in the menu.

In the shop the products are shown tabbed so that part works.

Can anybody help me with the Admin section?

Thanks!

Problem seems unique to your store setup, and I'm sure it's not directly related to TPP, but possibly to other modifications you've made to your admin.. As this problem is not something I can replicate I couldn't begin to give you a clue what the issue might be.. I can only suggest trying to re-install TPP..

Hi, thank you for your answer.
The strangest thing happened: I removed TPP and after that it works!!
I dont understand this at all but i am happy it works now :-)

Hi!

I'm trying to use Multi Cross Sell with TPP on a zc151.

I have MCS installed, test products displays my cross sells, no problems. And I have set "TPP - Global Cross Sell Tab" to "1" to enable Cross Sell to show up under a tab.

No dice!

Here is a link to my sample page:
http://2staging.apswittcosales.com/C...3_4_x_3-1_2_IN

All of my other tabs are working fine (Accessories button is the Attributes tab, renamed).

TPP is set up to work automatically with Cross Sell, but not MULTI Cross Sell? Is there a way to get MCS to work nicely with TPP?

If not, which cross sell version should I use? This one?

I chose the "MULTI" version because it does not limit the number of cross sells to 6. Many of my products will have far more than 6 accessories. For instance, for a soldering iron I will want to provide as many as 30 tips to choose from.

Thanks,
Mike

After much tears and gnashing of teeth, I found THIS POST.

I guess I will now surrender and abandon Multi Cross Sell, though it breaks my heart. Looks easier to find a way around the stunted number of products offered by Cross Sell Plus Advanced Sell.

Lousy solution.

You know what the ultimate solution would be? Allow you to select products to behave like attributes. You could then group sets of products and apply the collections to specific products or categories of products. Man, that would be so tight! That way the attributes could have automatic More Info links.

Sorry. Off subject.

Peace out, yo!
