Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread

[DivaVocals]

From my recall, I think that mod has the catalog (customer side) display in a separate folder that you would need to add the block of code to the tpl_product_info_display.php.

As far as the data not being saved to the database, I would suggest you relook at the collect_info.,php and the update.php files in admin. Make sure that those files are merged correctly OR uploaded directly from the mod if no customizations in the past. Those 2 files serve the purpose of updating the database. Another possiblity is that the other files such as the npf_sql folders were not loaded correctly? That mod tries to make it easier for users to upload as it separates the database calls in its own files.

Fix the admin side first then do the catalog side as no data saved in the database will not display in the catalog side.

CSS/JS loader bascially has 2 main purposes which it loads css and js files in an order that is owner controlled and has the ability to minify those same files. I don't use the minify option but do use the autoload feature. Basically it solves the downfall of having to rename files alphabetically when you want to load it in a certain order such as loading jquery first. Another positive is that some plugins use links to js files as they want it to load at a specific location after other files which the css/js loader also solves by telling it when and which order to load in.

and not to be a naysayer, but discussions regarding the setup and configuration of other modules should be discussed in separate threads since none of this set up is specifically related to Tabbed Products Pro..

Thank you. I am not sure how to do that but will try. Usually Supp fact table goes in description when creating product but having a separate tab for this should work?

Or do I have to create a separate field for SF on Create product page first?

The instructions in the readme are pretty good to help guide you through all the edits needed to create the extra tab.. It was what I used as a guide to add the Defined page tabs that are a part of the current version..

Once you have your additional product fields working you will need to add the code needed so that your new tab will display your additional product fields.. This part is a tad over my head, but it sounds like there are community members who've chimed in here who can help you with that last part..

I have installed ZC 1.5.3.
Installed EP 4.0
Added 13 custom product fields to the products table.They are all in TEXT format.
Installed TPP 1.10
I plan to install Image Handler 4.


I need TPP to be able to pull content / data from custom fields so that the custom data is displayed in tabs in the product information page of my store.


I read Crazy_Chris' post that was submitted in 2007 which seems to be the easiest to follow instructions so far. But. I am not sure if there have been changes in ZC since 2007, or if the TPP 1.10 Global Tabs instructions are sufficient to pull the data. Or do I need to make the changes that Crazy_Chris outlines and the TPP Global Instructions. I'm not a programmer; but, I am good at following instructions, provided they are clearly written.
I have looked at Numinix 3.0 but most of the custom field names are different than the ones I have created and it modifies ZC 1.5.3 core files.

This is probably going to be a simple thing and it'll be a big DUH, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I would like to change the "Attributes" tab to read "Product Options". Can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks much!

Oh, and fantastic mod! It's solving a big issue I have with one site.

Did you try the language file for TPP? There should be one in the extra definitions folder.

Geez, I'm feeling pretty stupid. Thanks!

How to switch order of "reviews" with "custom tabs"?

How to switch order of "reviews" with "custom tabs"?

Alright, I learned to use Custom Tab Tags and this question expired. Of course I wanted custom tab with different content for each product, and this is impossible with Global Custom Tab1, Global Custom Tab2 etc. It's also easy to manage order of custom tabs when using tags.
Sorry for ill question

I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work. I can get global settings to work but not custom tabs. Each of my products may have different tabs so global settings wont be appropriate. I have used the example coding for including the tabs through the product page but I cannot get it to show any tabs. If I copy and paste the example text:

This is text above the tabs.
<!--%Product Description%-->
This is the main product description.
<!--%Extra Specs%-->
This is where you can add custom stuff as you wish. You can have as many
tabs as you want.
<!--%BlahBlah%-->
This is another tab named BlahBlah

I get the text to show but no tabs. I also have no tab headers showing, just the text that should under the tabs. Any ideas would be very welcome.

It has been a long time since I used these, but did you enter the end tag? <!--@EndTabs@-->
I vaguely remember having issues when I did not include that.
