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

When I get the log reports (http://www.MOODLESITE.com/course/report.php) , unlike other pages and activites (where I normally see the activity name - such as the forum name or the course name or the quiz name - in the "inforamtion" column) here I just see the tab number, e.g. 6.
It's really important for the report to return the name and not the number of the tab.
Thanks,
P. H.
I have spotted another problem.
When you set a tab display to be available from a certain date, even if you set it to be completely hidden before that date, the tab diplay name appears in the tab list (left-hand column).

Download directly from github: works fine
Is there a way to show some text description above the tabs? We want to add some introductory text about this section, and (possibly) add some instructions asking students to go through all tabs.
We're currently testing it on Moodle 2.3.2.
The tab display plugin (downloaded today from Moolde plugins database) has a date of 2010112400 even though it should be the one reported by the plugin updater:
There is a new version 2012101700 available!
When I upgraded Moodle 2.3 to a newer build, this module refused to downgrade.
I will appreciate your help.
I just installed it on Moodle 2.3.3 with no issues. If using linux, check your permissions on the folder. I have tested and is running on all 2.x versions including Moodle 2.4
I'm still getting this error: on Moodle 2.3.3+ (Build: 20121123)
Plugin "block/tab" is defective or outdated, can not continue, sorry.
Debug info: Missing main block class file.
Error code: detectedbrokenplugin

Innocent mistake. Has happened to me before. The tab display is not a block. It's an activity module and therefore must be installed in the mod folder and not the blocks folder.
Installation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Rename the folder to 'tab'
2. Copy the folder tab to moodle/blocks
3. Install the plugin
