Tabbed Products ''LITE'' version - Delimiter based

qhome, fantastic work! I love this!!!!

Just one observation though.. the "bluewhite" additional CSS file has incorrect image definition.. in the file its looking for images/menuleft.gif i believe, while in the images directory its actually called bw_tab or something like that. Just thought you should know!

SyntheticShield:

The only thing left that I see is that I have two menu links on the admin > configuration to the Tabbed Products Config. Any ideas on how I can get rid of the extra one. One link takes me to the configuration page with all the options, while the other goes to a configuration page with nothing. It has the title bar but absolutely no options.

Hmm.. i thought that would have been deleted with the sql file. No problem. Can you tell me what the gID number in the address bar shows for the Broken TPL Config link. After you select that option it should show something like:
http://www.mysite.com/admin/configuration.php?gID=51

I will make a quick sql file to delete that table row based on that number.

Ah yes.. some left over from a naming convention change. I actually have a few more css/image options as well.. Whenever i see something I like I usually add it to my folder.

Here is a CSS Addon pack for tabbedlite. It should work with all 3.x versions.

Just a few extra css choices for you.
Remember to try them one at a time. The extra css files are in a subdirectory of the css folder so drag one in at a time from the sub folder to the main root to try them all. Remember to backup any of your custom tabbed lite css changes and read the readme file.

OK, I've got a new version coming out with support to add the hardcode stuff to any tab based on the tab number. So now you can have the add to cart button on any or all pages or combine other modules on one tab.

From the Readme:

Tabbed Lite Patch for 3.7 preview

This is a preview/patch for the new sub tagging coming up in the next version.
It is only meant to patch Tabbed Lite version 3.6AE and is not a full release!
It won't break your existing tab setup, it only adds new features based on new tags that you could add.

The new feature is the use of sub_tags to put more than one hardcode tag item on any tab you wish.

For example you can put the add to cart button on the same tab as the additional images, or the attribute options on the same tab as the customers also purchased.

To use:

The new tabs use <!--*sub_xxx(#)*-->. When entering data in your Product Description area in the admin panel, simply add a tag with the number of the tab you want it to be on.

Supported tags at this time (case sensitive):

<!--*sub_AddToCart(#)*--> <!--*sub_AttributeOptions(#)*--> <!--*sub_AdditionalImages(#)*--> <!--*sub_CustomersAlsoPurchased(#)*--> <!--*sub_CrossSell(#)*-->

EXAMPLE:

<!--%Product Description%-->

This is the stuff on the first tab. It also has Add To Cart button on it. (by itself)

<!--*sub_AddToCart(1)*--> <!--%Custom Tab 2%-->

This tab has Add to cart & Attribute Options on it

<!--*sub_AddToCart(2)*--> <!--*sub_AttributeOptions(2)*--> <!--%Images & Also Purchased%--> <!--*sub_AdditionalImages(3)*--> <!--*sub_CustomersAlsoPurchased(3)*-->

(the last tab has additional images and customers also purchased on it with no text)

Demo

Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.

Woops.. forgot to add code that removes it from outside of the tabs if it already exists inside of the tabs. Well I'll work on that.. but in the mean time you can play with it, just add the <!--#AddToCart#--> tag to the product as well for now.

OK fixed it..

Now try it:

qhome, I checked (sorry it took so long, been busy adding products to the site) and the GID is 32. The one that works is 888 just in case you need that.

Try running this in the sql patch area:

DELETE FROM `configuration_group` WHERE `configuration_group_id` = '32' LIMIT 1;

OK fixed it..

Now try it:

I should add, there are no changes to the product_display template, only the tab files to support this change. Also no new database entries.. So don't be afraid.. download it! :P It's only 3 files to enhance your life!

You DA MAN!!! That fixed it qhome. I have just one menu entry now. I really need to learn more about the database and MySQL in general, I could probably have taken care of that myself if I had a little more knowledge. Just the same, I think you for taking the time to do that for me.

I spent nearly a year with my previous ecommerce solution and NEVER came close to the flexibility of ZC and with the Tabbed Products contrib there is just nothing that compares.

Please, Please tell me they are planning to make this contrib a permanent part of ZC...

Sorry Im a little confused

So this new update will put the options/attributes on their own tab?

Ive been trying to move mine up above the add to cart stuff with no luck,
if this will fix that, all hail qhome. :D

Essentially, Yes.

If you disable the "Global Add to Cart" and remove all <!--#AddToCart#--> tags from the description, then add a new custom tab called backgrounds and put <!--*sub_AttributeOptions(2)*--> in there, it will put the attribs on that tab and any other information you want. There may be some tweaking yet to be done, but it should work the way you want it for now.

Is there any way I could possibly get a copy of your tpl_product_info_display
to get the look you accomplished on the demo site qhome?

http://www.unbannable.com/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=2

Ive tried editing it myself with disaterous results, I seem to missing something everytime and reverting to my backup copy.

I kind of a show me once, and Ive got it type.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure what you mean. On the demo site I'm using the default product info display file. If you are referring to the tab image style, those are available in the css add on pack that i just released (in my signature). The rest is all default stuff.

Unless you mean my color scheme and site theme?

So now you can have the add to cart button on any or all pages or combine other modules on one tab.
That sounds darn handy!!! :ohmy:

I will try it during the week as soon as I have a chance. :wink2:

I was referring to how your options are above the addd to cart
box

sorry I should have been more clear about what I was trying to do

Options are above the add to cart button by default if you set "<!--#AddToCart#-->" tag in your description. Inside the tabs, I put it all on a table to make it look better. If you want to put the table outside of the tabs as well, I can help you with that.

I'll post it up in a bit.

Ok got it set up

Wow, what a contribution, qhome, you got my vote for support of the century
on this.

:clap:

I'm having problems with my tabs. My first problem is nothing happens when I click on the tabs. I noticed when I hover over the tab it says" javascript:void(0). Would this have something to do with it?

Also, I cannot get my additional images tab to display correctly. I've added additional images (test.jpg (main image) and test_1.jpg (2nd image), uploaded them to the proper folder, added this in my product description:

but my tab text says TEXT_TAB_TITLE_ADDITIONAL_IMAGES instead of Additional Images. Any ideas on what's happening?

Sounds like you dont have the full install. Did you download version 3.6AE from the downloads page? Did you rename YOUR_TEMPLATE to the template that you are using. Javascript(void) is fine, but if the script isn't in the right folder, then it wont work.

Gotta link i can look at?
