Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.It will be great to adopt a tab interface so that we can arrange element beyond the same page.
For example ,
We have a product content type with a lot of fields description a product
If ds module has tab interface, we can arrange product information into different tabs.
I'm not sure whether it is best to do with other tab like modules or ds.

swentel commentedWell, if you install the tabs module, you get this for free. Create a fieldset at admin/ds/nd/fieldgroups (or if you defined fieldsets with the fieldgroups module of cck), drag and drop them into the interface and choose 'tabs' as a formatter. So basically, you don't need the fieldgroups and/or cck fieldgroup tabs module for this to work. Re-open if you mean something else (or if it doesn't work heh).

astra commentedFor testing I installed the tabs module, created a ds fieldgroup and a cck fieldgroup. Then put them into a layout, for example, a Teaser mode. Now I can find the Tabs in the cck fieldgroup formatters, but NOT in the ds fieldgroup.
How to enable the Tabs formatter for ds fieldgroups? Thanks!

swentel commentedCan you simple resave the ds fieldgroup and see if it show up afterwards ? It's something I can't really fix (without ugly hacks), so that's the (I admit annoying) work around.
Comment #4
swentel commentedOk, did the flow myself and that's indeed the workaround to get the tabs formatter in it.
Comment #5
astra commentedThe Tabs formatter shows up after re-saving the ds fieldgroup. Anyway, it works. Thanks!
