Tab Display is a resource module used to display course information such as notes, readings, biography etc, in a tab structure per chapter/module within a course.

Websites can also be embedded into the tabs. Using Moodle auto-linking, helps create links to other activities or resources.

New features:

  • A general description can be added above the tabs
  • PDF embedded functionality. If you put a link with a PDF file on the content of a tab (without any text around), the PDF file will be displayed in an iFrame

    I as well would like to know if this useful plugin will be updated for Moodle 2.8 and beyond.

    You will be updated under the Moodle 3.0?

    Oh dear as along time user of this plugin we seem to have lost the ability to upload and link documents into a tab via the file picker?? All I can see in my file picker now is YouTube and Embedded files. We are still on Moodle 2.6 and this was working so I wonder what broke?

    Now tested this in Moodle 2.9 and the Atto editor. When trying to upload and link to a document in a tab the file picker is just offering 'Embedded Files'. I hope the devs can find time to return to this plugin soon, we have 85 instances of it running across our site.

    Please consider updating the plugin to allow tab displays to work with Moodle 3.0. Tab displays have been very useful and now that we've been updated to 3.0, they are no longer accessible in my course.

    Anne, you may be out of luck with these guys. Sadly, I think they have moved on. See https://oohoo.biz/index.php/en/plug-ins/display/tab-display/ The last update here is 2012.
    There are some other alternatives. Try a search for 'tabs' you'll find Generico and at least one other tabs plugin.

    Hi - thanks to my colleague Kathrin Schwarz who looked into it I'm quite happy it does work with 3.0 - at least for us.

    It was pretty simple only adjust the version
    change in mod/tab/version.php in :

    $plugin->version = 2014040200; // The current module version (Date: YYYYMMDDXX)
    $plugin->requires = 2014040200; // Requires this Moodle version
    $plugin->maturity = MATURITY_STABLE;
    $plugin->release = '2.2.0 (Build: 2014040200)';
    $plugin->cron = 0;
    $plugin->component = 'mod_tab'; // Full name of the plugin (used for diagnostics)

    Hope it works for you

    Hi,
    We are using this plugin in Moodle 3.0.4. It is working fine in pc but when we access in moodle from mobile device, scrolling(up-down/left-right) is not working. So user can't see full embedded sit or file. Is there any solution for this.

    Under Moodle 3.2 the duplication function is not working.

    Just wondering if anybody used this in v3.3 and whether anybody had success with it on mobile? Alternatively - best other solution for tabbed content pages?

    TB, I am not claiming this is the 'best' solution. I am using BS4 tabs with Boost. https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=344651
    I have got a single button using Snippets to insert the code.
    There is one gotcha. If I paste in any unformatted code (eg like a link) then atto destroys the code. https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-58084
    If you want I can describe my workflow as it is in the moment.
    I think that responsive tabs inside a section is a good way to solve the scroll of death, and it is 'normal' internet type navigation and the users in our Moodle all work really well.
