Hi all,

Here's a new tutorial on how to create tabs in your forms with ease: http://youtu.be/EUq0H91iXss

_jrmo, serious thank to you.

You're right, that was ridiculously simple.

I'm going to use this in many of my forms now.  Will also make really good use of screen real estate.

While your first group of tutorials left me confused, I think I'm going to go back to them to see if what I've learned so now makes them clearer to me.

For example, in the beginning of using Seblod I had no idea why I would be creating new Categories and stuff like that.  I'm only now beginning to understand that. 

Thanks again.

Did you happen to notice that tabs don't work in joomla 2.5?

I have upgraded so I didn't notice the issue.
What I did notice is that this works wonderful for my backend forms but on my frontend forms it didn't work.  I really wonder if I'm having an issue with the front end template.  I have to try some new ones and see if that's the issue.

for this to work you need to make sure bootstrap js and css are loaded in your template and also make sure jquery is loaded

bootstrap (was twitter bootstrap) is something that saves a lot of time when you build your site (not to mention its very easy to master.. you probably need 1-2 hours to understand how it works).. go to getbootstrap.com

I'm going to release the first seblod template (Content/Form) that run on top of Bootstrap's Scaffolding.. it's going to be big !

James,

Strange thing about tabs is that is seems to only work with Joomla's default templates.  (Prostar, Beeze)

I installed several different website templates and none of them work.  It just makes one really long form with all of the tab titles showing up as Bullet Points.

Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Yeah, this is still an issue...Loads in Prostar but not in the one I use from Rockettheme.  Any fix on this?
