Issue Summary

Hi,

really a great and convenient module. Though I would like ask if somebody can add a custom field from cck to the vertical tabs. As far as I am concerned there is not such feature in the module.

Comments

#1

You can.

You need to place your CCK field inside a group, and set that group's visibilty setting to 'collapsible'. Once you've done that, the group can be enabled for vertical tabs on the content type edit form.

Enabling fieldgroups to be part of vertical tabs (in the content type's Edit tab) doesn't seem to work as of 6.x-1.0-beta7. None of the settings mentioned in comment #1 appear in the Edit tab.

#5

#1 is not correct. With the latest code (6.x-1.x-dev) you can adjust the fieldgroup's settings and set its display to 'vertical tabs'. This was added in #655844: Alter CCK UI to add a "make this fieldgroup a vertical tab" checkbox.

Well, the dev version works with the new settings approach, but the current recommended version is beta-7, which contains neither the old nor new settings, making cck fieldgroups impossible. So, this is a time waster until a new release is made.

Please leave issues fixed. You could always use 6.x-1.x-dev. I'm debating creating a 2.x branch for these new features and leaving the old functionality of the module as an official 1.0 release.
