New Extension: MX Custom Tabs

Looking forward to the update, as this doesn’t work with Gypsy currently.

On the other hand, if this can work in combination with MX Custom Field Access, then that gives me an oppportunity to convert to a more MX-centric workflow and hopefully improve administration / publishing.

Please keep us posted!

Hello, Mx Custom Tabs doesn’t seem to play well with Wygwam :( Maybe a DOM problem ?

:( unfortunally, I don’t have Wygwam for testing. Could you please send me desc to PM what exalcy heppen (with screenshots)?

btw the new version is totally ready - gypsy support, tab order. Will be available in 24 hours (after I finished updates on my webhosting).

Fantastic extension. Invaluable for a project I just started that includes a weblog with 70 custom fields. Thanks!

Seems to work fine so far with one notable exception: the horizontal rules/lines that separate custom fields on the publish page are missing. They appear just fine on weblogs without custom tabs but are missing when I define custom tabs.

Curiously, for a brief moment after I load a publish page that uses MX Custom Tabs, I can see all my fields and they indeed contain horizontal rules. After about a second of time, all the fields disappear, leaving just those that are in the default Publish Form tab.

Not sure if the missing horizontal rules is solely a MX Custom Tabs issue or an extension conflict. I am running about a dozen extensions. If I get time later, I’ll try to isolate the issue.

Thanks again for all your work on this.

Thanks for response! 😊

yes - it was a CT problem, but I fixed it in new version.

Lucky me. I identify an issue and get an immediate response that a fix is already on its way!

I look forward to your new version, which I gather will be available as soon as you complete some webhosting updates.

Thanks again for making my life easier.

The file seems corrupted? Don’t open, and wants to open zip in new window.

MX Custom Tabs 0.7.0 is avalible - new UI, Gypsy support, Custom Tabs order. Enjoy

Great extension! But, there’s always a but, I can’t add tabs. The pop-up doesn’t appear. The folder css is empty in the download, might that be it?

Empty css folder is ok - I used the folder template for my package. Some of them have css, some not. MXCT don’t have.

Do you have jQuery for CP enable (jquery + jquery UI)? What browser do you used? Do you have any Js errors?

Thanks for fast reply! Yes, jQuery is enabled.

I use Safari 4 on Mac and I get the following error re js.

TypeError: Result of expression 'jQuery("#dialog-modal").dialog' [undefined] is not a function.

Seems to be what’s causes the error. I also have several other extensions installed. Could be a clash.

Could you please look - what the version of jquery-ui.min.js and jquery.min.js you have? And, if it possible, could you please send me(by PM) you extension page screenshot?

I updated to jquery 1.3.2 and jqueryui 1.7.1, cleared the cache, but still the same. I’ll PM you the screenshot.

A bit later, everything works after updating jQuery.
