Plugin Tabs ..

[ChrisColeman]

Hi,

     I would like to change the default tabs for plugin - a pointer in the right direction would be highly appretiated.

Thanks  .

The default tab for any plugin is "General". Then, in the module's admin skin template, this Smarty variable, {$MODULE_ZONES}, will bring in the tabs "Allowed Zones" and "Disabled Zones". (The visible nomenclature is relevant to the admin's language pack being used.) Also, in the module's admin index script, a call is made to instantiate a Module class instance, typically:

$module	= new Module(__FILE__, $_GET['module'], 'admin/index.tpl', true);

where true relates to whether or not to determine and record countries allowed and disallowed and show the respective tabs.

To add tabs, make a call to:

$GLOBALS['main']->addTabControl();
where the function is in:
/classes/acp.class.php

When CubeCart is ready to show the collection of tab details, a hook, 'admin.tabs', allows for a module to fine-tune that collection.
