Licensing

Tabber is released under The GNU General Public License, version 3.0.

Installation

• Download, extract and place the file(s) in a directory called Tabber in your extensions/ folder.
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:

  wfLoadExtension( 'Tabber' );
  

•  Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Usage

Tabs are created as follows: <tabName>=<tabBody>

Tabs are separated by: "|-|"

<tabber>
 tab1=Some neat text here
|-|
 tab2=
 [http://www.google.com Google]<br>
 [http://www.cnn.com Cnn]<br>
|-|
 tab3={{Template:SomeTemplate}}
</tabber>

Multiple word tabs

Add &nbsp; between words. Example:

<tabber>
 multiple&nbsp;word&nbsp;tab=Some neat text here
</tabber>

Parser functions and conditionals

<tabber>
Tab1 = {{{1|}}}
|-|
Tab2 = {{{2|}}}
</tabber>

Becomes:

{{#tag:tabber|
Tab1={{{1|}}}
{{!}}-{{!}}
Tab2={{{2|}}}
}}

Issues

• Tabbers do not display on the mobile skin.
• Section editing does not work in Tabbers. If one or more section headers appear in a Tabber, use __NOEDITSECTION__ on that page.
