I've got a custom node template file where I'm using some of the newer CCK 2.x template variables:

$<GROUP_NAME>_rendered

When I change the fieldgroup displays from simple/fieldset to 'tabs', it no longer renders the field/fieldgroups

Have others experienced this issue/bug?

What approaches have you used to utilize the great functionality of cck fieldgroup tabs when needing custom node templates?

Thanks

I'm just encountering this myself - I need to make some custom node templates and I'm not sure how to display fieldgroup tabs in my custom node.tpl.php

What's the easiest way to do this?

When I was trying to get this to work before, I ended up having to work around this by outputting the content variable and unsetting everything else but the fields inside the tabs, so that I could display those first as I wanted, then my tabs. Not ideal or elegant, but it worked for my implementation.

It seems this module needs a theme hook, but alas, not something I can do :)

For another project that needed tabbed panes, I simply used an available javascript library and hardwired it into my theme so that I could control it precisely.
