Hi,

I've got severeal CCK fields and the CCK fieldgroup module enabled. Is it possible to tell Vertical Tabs to use these fields or fieldgroups to display vertically aligned tabs?

Thanks for any hints.

If you just use the general fieldgroups in CCK do the following:

- create your cck fields as needed

- create a fieldgroup to organize the fields

- go to the content type edit page and find at the bottom of the form the settings for vertival tabs

- select the fieldgroup you wish to be handled by vertical tabs

- save

OK, I've got it. In order to do this you must edit fieldgroups to display as 'Collapsible' style. Then the checkbox will appear for a given fieldgroup in edit content type section.

BUT, I need vertical tabs not only for EDITING but also for DISPLAYING content to my visitors. How can I achieve this?

this will not be as easy as it needs some tweaking of the module code for the view op and you'll need also a relation to the fieldset you wish to display then. what exactly do you want to achieve? perhaps you want to open a new forum topic and we can close this issue as we get in a distance to the topic.

I saw another modules focused on the display part - "tabs" module if I remember well. Search the http://drupal.org/project/usage page for tabs...

Module maintainers - should we mark this thread as fixed? Do you feel like this module would have some display features? I think that this is way beyond the scope here...

The question about the CCK in the v_tabs in edit mode was answered above though - 10x.

This module is only intended to affect forms, as vertical_tabs is a form element type (or will be in Drupal 7). So no, it will not provide display features to front-end users.

This is an excellent module and with my limited experience of Drupal, this module has proven to be simple to use. It certainly would be nice to display the fields in same manner.
