    • How do you link to a tab created using Plugin Tabs?

    Posted by jangriff posts: 31

    Wiki version = 6.1

    On my Wiki page I created tabs using the Plugin Tabs.

    Let's say I have 3 tabs. Each tab has it's own content and that displays just fine when I click on each tab.

    Is there a way to create a link from the content on tab 1 that goes to the content on tab 3?

    When I hover over tab 3, the url says the page name is: pagename#content3. So I tried using the wiki syntax for linking to a spot within a Wiki page:

    pagename|#content3|linkname

    But that only takes me to the bottom of the current tab content.

    How do I link to another tab?

    Thanks,
    janet

    Hi Janet,

    you can use
    [This_is_your_page_name&cookietab=2|name of your link]

    The number indicates the tab, you want to access.

    Gregor,

    I tried that, but I get a page not found error.

    Here is my code. Am I doing something wrong?

    {TABS(name="TerminalTabSet", tabs="Overview|File Build|Installing|Download")}
    !!Overview
    This is content for the Overview page. Go to the [jgTabs&cookietab=4|Download] tab.
    ///// ~tc~ End of Overview Tab Content ~/tc~
    !!File Build
    This is content for the File build page.
    ///// ~tc~ End of File Build Tab Content ~/tc~
    !!Installing
    This is content for the Installing page.
    ///// ~tc~ End of Installing Tab Content ~/tc~
    !!Download
    This is content for the DL page.
    ///// ~tc~ End of Download Tab Content ~/tc~
    {TABS}

    Hi Janet,

    I tried that syntax on my own tiki and it works for me. Maybe it's because I'm using sefurl (just a guess).

    Try to use [tiki-index.php?page=YourNameHere&cookietab=X|link name] or use the full url. Check the link's working by deleting '&cookietab=X' to be sure the 404 error is caused by this part of the link.
