Tab-based editing in eZPublish admin interface (as opposed to default accordion)

bftabbedcontentedit eZPublish extension

Purpose: When editing content, users see attribute groups as tabs rather than multiple accordions at the bottom of the stack. It also has prev/next buttons at the bottom for easy movement to other tabs once the user reaches the bottom of the group.

(also fixes a missing div in ezobjectrelation datatype, edit view)

Software Dependencies:

Written in eZPublish 4.5, and tested in eZPublish 4.6-4.7.
Dependencies: None.

Multilanguage considerations:

None.

Multisite considerations:

None.

Installation and Setup

Just copy into extensions, activate in admin, and clear cache.
General reminder (core ez functionality, but here for a recap):

To add new Tabs, (or attribute groups), do this in content.ini, like so:

[ClassAttributeSettings]
CategoryList[category_identifier]=Category Name

So to get a tab called "Related Nodes", that would be:

[ClassAttributeSettings]
CategoryList[related_nodes]=Related Nodes

Once you do this, you should start seeing this as options when editing classes. (note: if none of your attributes are marked with a group, your category tab will not show).

Usage

Should be automatic. You should be seeing tabs when editing objects, as long as there are attributes belonging to those groups.

TODOs

  1. Come back to same tab on some page transitions, like picking related objects (currently thrown to first tab)
