Missing configuration options for some node forms

I can't duplicate this because it works just fine on node/add/[type] paths for me. Do you get any errors? Anything that can help debug this?

I've encountered something similar on the node/add form for the bibio module. I get this error after clicking 'configure this form':

warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /[local MAMP folder]/includes/form.inc on line 1205.

that section of code from form.inc is

function form_type_checkboxes_value($form, $edit = FALSE) {
  if ($edit === FALSE) {
    $value = array();
    $form += array('#default_value' => array());
    foreach ($form['#default_value'] as $key) {
      $value[$key] = 1;
    }
    return $value;
  }
  elseif (!isset($edit)) {
    return array();
  }
}

@framestory: That's already been fixed in CVS (6.x-1.x-dev).

I am not entirely certain the following is the result of the bug mentioned here.

With the commit of: http://drupal.org/node/644790
I have added the appropriate form_controller module.
When I configure a default node type, inside the "configure this form", the vertical tabs thing does properly show up and the error mentioned in this thread does appear.

However, when I configure a custom node-type, inside the "configure this form", the vertical tabs region does not appear at all (let alone any vertical tabs options) and no error message appears.

I just created a custom test content-type that worked as it should, but when I added a CCK text field, the vertical tabs configuration area would vanish from the "configure this form" page.

Please try again with the latest beta7 and the Form module (replaces Form controller).

Hi,

I have the same issue - I have downloaded forms & the latest version of vertical tabs (today's), and I can configure some forms (e.g. I can configure the content type edit form), but not others (the node creation forms of custom content types) -the page says

Configure form ()
save cancel

and that's all! No options, error messages, or anything.

Of course, the one place where I really need vertical tabs to be configured is the node creation/edit form.
I do have CCK / fieldgroups in these content types, if that's an issue.

On a side note, I have looked at the database and it seems that the list of items to be tabified is stored in the variable table as a list - is there a way to just go & edit that variable directly instead? If yes what is the syntax to follow?

Thanks,

Delphine

I also found this same issue. It seems there may be a bug somewhere that is causing something to break. I am not sure if this is related to vt or form module. Upon clicking to configure this form, the title of the page becomes "Configure form ()" and then there are no configuration options even though there should be.

The funny thing is that I can make things work perfectly on one site, but on another the issue occurs.

Thanks

I'm having exactly the same issue. I just want to use it with the textimage module, but I get no configuration options... and I can't figure out how to manually config vertical tabs for the textimage module...

Cheers

The standard drupal type blog works in /node/add/blog but other (page, story and custom) do not. Where can i setup them? Or all types should be work by default and there is the conflict with other modules.

Same issue as #9. Everything worked great before the latest update of core/cck... The vertical tabs configuration disappeared on all content type edit pages. And, some content types have vertical tabs while others don't.

This is a duplicate of #666036: Vertical Tabs no longer works on the front end?. As of beta6 the vertical tabs settings under the node type settings were removed in favor of a general solution. Futhermore:

The last release that was 'working' properly was 6.x-1.0-beta5, which is still available to download. No one is forcing anyone to have to use the latest version. In fact its actually OK to stick with a version that works for you as long as there's not a security update. You can even use the Update advanced settings module to 'disable' update notifications for a specific project.
