    Hello,

    I have posted a query in the General Add-ons Forum and hoped you might be able to take a look at it and offer some advice.

    Thanks in advance for any help. I really hope I can use these Display Tabs. They make navigation very slick!

    Hello,
    I have installed the 2.4.1 version in Moodle 2.2.4, but I can only see a normal Moodle topic format.
    I tried to install 2.4.0, but unless you delete the database entries, it does not refresh.
    Which version of Moodle 2.2.do you need to run?

    Hi,
    The Plugin version 2.4.1 should be working with moodle 2.2+.
    I just tested it for Moodle 2.2.5+ and it works fine.
    In edit mode, the style of the course is the same as the topic format but in read mode you should see the tabs or if there is a problem you will see ... nothing ...

    Just try to create a new course and apply the course format.

    Thanks,

    Nicolas

    Hello,
    I've downloaded 2.4.1 version of this format into moodle 2.4.1+ it looks great.
    A video embedded in an iframe in a label in a tab works fine using firefox on both PC and mac, but using chrome or safari the video does not display properly or play. It displays and plays fine in a 'normal' topics style page. It displays fine in the editing page. But as soon as I save and display, the video goes like an image. Is this a problem please with the plugin? Chrome is up to date. Any help appreciated.

    Hi Sue,
    Can you provide me an example of your problem like a course in guest access or at least screenshots, that will help me a lot to understand the problem.

    Thanks,

    Hi Patrick and Nicolas,

    Will there be a Moodle 2.5 version soon?

    I'm currently getting the depreciated warning as with the calendar format - please see my comment there.

    Cheers,

    Gareth

    hi,
    when using tabtopics, there are links in navigation block/current course/course name/tab name/content name.
    If I click content name I get it. OK!
    If I click tab name, I get a blank page with the Jump to option. Not OK!
    Why the click doesn't move me to that tab?

    When you use conditional access to a section in your course, you can not set the section invisible using tabtopics. It wil always show.

    I would really like to see this fixed, is this possible?

    Dear Nicolas, I love this theme very much and use it a lot, so congratulations.

    While using it, I have additional wishes:
    1. In another tab-format, the teacher can decide to include section zero as tab or not.
    2. In combination with 1: I would like that the tabs are higher on the page with less whitespace.

    Hi, is it possible to fix this issue: you click on second tab¸(in fact any tab but first), click for example a moodle page or assignment, you click back and you are on the first tab. I would love to get back on the tab I was before. Thanks.

    Hi

    Thanks for an awesome course format.

    The issue above was raised:

    'When you use conditional access to a section in your course, you can not set the section invisible using tabtopics. It will always show.'

    I am finding this too. Can you advise?

    Thanks!

    What steps are needed to change the style of the tabs? Would like to give them different colors and styles.
