Changing Tabs Menu and Adding "Specifications"...?

rkdiddy · #1 03-09-2006, 09:25 PM

I would like to add a Specifications tab to my "Tabs Menu". I'm ok with replacing one of the current tabs to do this.

Basically what I'm looking for is to have a table (1) column Specifications and (1) column Features inside (1) tab. I'm not really sure where to even start. Can someone please help!!!

Check out cart lab's product tabs module.

Works great and is very reasonably priced.

Thank you for the response. I should have clarified. I do have cart-lab's tabs. I figured out how to add an additional tab and change tab names etc.

What I now need help with is making a template that includes a table with one colum specifications and one column details.

So I'm looking for:

1. How do I make a template with two columns (i.e. what code do I use)?

2. What code is used to call this from my products?

Thanks!

I just embedded mine right in the cart labs template, instead of putting the content in it's own template and then calling that. Then I wrapped a conditional to show it if the product was in a specific category (since that's what I needed).

The Readme file is pretty easy to follow.

New Tab

Code:

{if $product.categoryid == 26}[*]Guarantee{/if}

New Tab Content

Code:

<DIV id="guarantee" style="display:none;">
{capture name=dialog}



<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tbody><tr> 
<td class="DialogTitle" background="/xcart/skin1/images/dialog_bg_n.gif" height="15" valign="bottom">Event Satisfaction Guarantee</td>
</tr>

<tr><td class="DialogBorder"><table border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
<tbody><tr><td class="DialogBox">
<h2>Money Back Guarantee</h2>
[img]images/guaranteed1.jpg[/img]Here's the deal.  

 ...

</td></tr>
</tbody></table></td></tr>

</tbody></table>
{/capture}
{include file="cartlab-tabs-dialog.tpl" title="Money Back Guarantee" content=$smarty.capture.dialog extra="width=100%"}
</DIV>

Just don't forget to add the new tab to the tabs.js array (again, it's in the readme).

Here is how I implemented it:

Hope that helps

I have an issue that I need the tab to show up on multiple subcategories not just 1 main category. How would I structure the if statement?

I don't quite understand the question?

Sorry,

The following code will only show a particular tab in one category.

Code:

{if $product.categoryid == 18}[*]Guarantee{/if}

In the cart I am currently working on I have a category with several subcategories that I need a particular tab to only show in.

So I need this tab to show in cat id 19, 20, and 21.

Hope this clears things up???

Code:

{If $product.categoryid eq 18 or $product.categoryid eq 19 or $product.categoryid eq 20}

Just use an OR logic operator.

Any idea why I would be getting the following error?

Fatal error: Smarty error: [in cartlab-tabs.tpl line 30]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'If' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580) in /home/acsystem/public_html/Smarty-2.6.9/Smarty.class.php on line 1088

Code:
