[Bug 925648] Re: Admin configurable # of tabs in Collection

 

Hi Marion,

Yep, in 15.10 we've completely eliminated the tabs for collection
navigation. They caused big problems when you had pages with long
titles, collections with lots of pages, or if you were viewing a
collection on a mobile device. So now we've got that menu (which
contains all the page titles, but hidden away until you open it up), and
the next/previous buttons.

If you want all the page titles visible at a glance, as an alternative
you could use the "Navigation" block.

Or, you might be able to implement an alternative theme that displays
the collection as tabs. I'm not sure if we're still passing the
collection titles into the Dwoo template as a list on their own (as
opposed to, already rendered into that menu) but I'd be willing to
upstream that in order to support a 3rd-party tabbed collection theme.

Cheers,
Aaron

Title:
  Admin configurable # of tabs in Collection

Status in Mahara:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  In Mahara 1.5.0-dev:

  *  view/view.php: Line ~#213 – the value hard-coded in this line controls the number of tabs displayed in users’
  collections. Currently set to "5", a 1024x768 screen size can easily accommodate 10 or more. 

  * artefact/file/blocktype/filedownload/theme/raw/filedownload.tpl: Line ~#5 – the value in this line controls
  the number of characters displayed in a file name in a file download block. Many user file names are greater than the "20" currently hardcoded.

  As requested by users, suggest these values might be made configurable
  by the Site Admin.
