Issue Summary
QuickTabs allows a node to be the content of a tab, but if the node does not use the Body field, then it seems not possible to show a "teaser" of the node in the tab. In my case, I create my own teaser by putting the text I want as the teaser in a CCK field called Summary. QT does not allow me to choose the CCK field(s) that will show on the tab. This would be a great feature.
Another great feature would be rotation through tabs on a timed basis with clicking on any tab stopping the rotation.
Thanks.

Quick Tabs uses the general node_view() function. So I believe you just need to set up your CCK field to show up in the teaser (or in the normal view), and it will show up in the quicktab.. Is it not working?
and I think the rotation feature request is here: #264299: Automatically scroll/cycle through tabs

Is there any chance that, in long run, quicktab will support the functionality of CCK Fieldgroup Tab, which is not being actively maintained?
Thanks for a great module!

maybe..

I'd love this. FieldGroups seem a natural for tabbing.

I would worship you guys for this functionality. It's a total tragedy that fieldgroup tabs is not well maintained.

(coming over from #426736: How can you add a link to a tab?)
ive got a problem with QT & CCK Fieldgroup Tabs 6.x-1.0
the tabs & the content of the tabs just dont appear :(
im finding normal fieldgroups dont work properly either... theyre permanently hidden :(
#9
oops, shouldve changed status given normal fieldgroups not working is a bug really.
#10
I've yet to test with QT, but having what may be a similar issue with CCK fieldgroups Tabs
Are you using a custom node template? And printing fields using template variables such as
$<FIELD_NAME>_renderedor
$<GROUP_NAME>_renderedIt simply does not display when I set the fieldgroup display to tab, while it displays fine for fieldset or simple.

QT support for CCK fields would be awesome.

The CCK Fieldgroup Tabs module hasn't had an update for almost 2 years now. Quicktabs is still active, and I was hoping that it'd support this.
I could probably fake this functionality with a combination of (mini) panels, Page Manager, CCK, Views, and Block Reference (to get blocks for use with Quicktabs, which I could embed with Page Manager onto node pages of the type I need, and then hide the fields that I display with view blocks instead. It's total overkill, though, IMO. For now I'm trying CCK Fieldgroup Tabs + Block Reference alone. The former strategy is my fallback, but we already use Quicktabs in other parts of the site, and so the themer will have to broaden the selectors for the styles, I guess. Can't be helped though.

Wow, already hit a limitation...CCK fieldgroups rather predictably can't have node fields (Body) under them, and I'm using the body, so that affects me. I could probably get around it using Display Suite, except I don't think CCK Fieldgroup Tabs integrates with DS like in D7 :(
So Quicktabs + View Blocks + maybe Page Manager it is! Falling back to Panels Tabs + Mini Panels otherwise.
#18
Or you can just use a cck field for the body
#19
Yeah, but that could affect other configuration. The way I did it was successful.
