Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread

[Axeman]

Hi FiberDawn. Thanks for your reply. I think the coding must have changed since you used it because I can't find that piece of code anywhere in the instructions. I tried it anyway and it didn't work.

After playing with it for quite some time all is resolved. My issue was that I had not turned on the tabs globally. I turned all global tabs off which stopped custom tabs from showing. I resolved this when I disabled all of the unwanted tabs so that only the custom tags would show when global tabs are enabled. I think that makes sense.

I did have another issue come up though which again I have solved. I really didn't like the layout of the product info page and I had a hell of a job trying to get it to display in the same format as my old version. In the end I had to place parts of the page into a table format in order to stop parts of the description appearing in between the product image and the price/add to basket block that I have now moved to the top next to the product image. I have included a snapshot for anyone who may want to do something similar.



If anyone wants to used this code message me and I will be happy to share. I will upload it here when I have cleaned it up a bit and have a bit more time.

This code is indeed in the readme file under the "How to Use" & "Notes & Demos" tabs.. the functionality/purpose of that tag has not been altered..

Covered in the readme file under the "Notes & Demos" tab..

Personally I don't think the use of tables is necessary or desired particularly if you have any notion that your site will be responsive.... the product page layout/order can be pretty easily modified, and CSS can be used to control the placement of items so that you avoid things like the product description appearing in the wrong place. An example of this in action can be see here:

or here:

Both of these layouts are done SANS tables..

Quickie question - I upgraded a cart from 1.3.9h so upgraded the Tabs mod. I turned off the Reviews Tab but the reviews do not show at all now. Is this expected behavior because it was a surprise to me.

Not behavior I would expect either.. I'll have to test and see if this behavior can be repeated..

Hi

Does this module work on tablet and mobile devices?

If by "work on tablet and mobile devices" you actually are meaning to ask is it responsive on tablet and mobile devices?? Then the answer is no.. The tabs will "work", but on a mobile device they will likely look like a shrunken version of what you see in the desktop view.

I've never done it so I can'r help provide any details on HOW, but I'm fairly certain that you'd have to make changes to the tabs in the TPP includes/module file.. However, the way TPP currently works is that if there is no product description NONE of the other tabs will work.. I say this because I am sure that this will impact the change to the order of the tabs.

Yes I agree with you. I have been tweaking code in module/tabbedpro file but nothing working so far.

I hope anyone have done this and can post here.
