Hey. So yeah this is pretty easy. Just add the link but use “#” and the name of the tab you want open.

So for example here is my page with tabs:

https://www.soest.hawaii.edu/HMRG/cms/towed-sonar-systems/imi120/

It has four tabs named Specs, Overview, Data, and Gallery.

If I want it to open to the Overview tab on that page automatically I would use this link:

https://www.soest.hawaii.edu/HMRG/cms/towed-sonar-systems/imi120/#overview

Most of the time you can see these links by hovering over the tabs and looking at the bottom left of your browser depending on what you are using but it doesn’t matter because its always named after your tabs titles.

Cheers,
Mike

Hmm seems to work fine for me. Tried an old and new/updated version of IE on Windows 7.

But of course IE sucks so Im sure there are problems. Can you be more specific on the error you are getting?

You will have to muck around with the theme&plugin css and code. Here is how to do it in HTML. Not sure if there is an easy option for the shortcode stuff.

Hmm. Not sure exactly what you are trying to do there but here are some tips.
// With opening and closing shortcode use this method instead.

echo do_shortcode(‘[iscorrect]’.$text_to_be_wrapped_in_shortcode.'[/iscorrect]’);

Using shortcode in custom field example:

< ?php
if (get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘gallery’, true)) {
$shortcode = get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘gallery’, true);
echo do_shortcode(“$shortcode”);
} else { echo ”; }
?>

Works for me. Are you still having this error? I think the styling was down for a bit. Thus the error.

Good luck. As a last option you could always muck around with the WP UI settings under settings.

I know under the advanced tab WP UI has several check boxes relating to loading JQuery. Not sure if any of them can help in this situation but it doesn’t hurt to try.

Yeah its something with VFB & WP UI. I’ve seen others are having the same problem. I don’t use VFB and not experienced with it so I can’t help you there sorry.

Yeah its a quick fix and I do all the editing so its not a problem in my case. I haven’t actually experience the reset when switching from HTML to visual editors. My div ids don’t get striped out but if you are adding style directly then yes it will. But the downside of course is if there is a new page the div code won’t be there.

If you are using it as a CMS then give the client a FAQ with all the shortcodes. I say this because many times the WP UI drop-down visual button doesn’t work properly so its useless in visual anyways. Then its much easier to create a custom shortcode with all the div styling that the client can add. Then you can create multiple styling options in shortcode and give it to the client to create custom pages/posts.

Its not the easiest solution but its nice once its all setup. Some documentation.

I haven’t tried this plugin but looks promising. Link.

Works for me. Can you be more specific with your problem or has it been fixed for you?

Yeah I heard it has problems with VFB. I try and skip on the dropdown menu and just do the coding personally.

Yeah this is the first thing I worked out on my install. I just simply went in to my WordPress theme style-sheet(style.css) and added a custom style:

#specialtabs {
overflow: visible;
width: 700px;
height: auto;
valign= top;
}

Then in my pages/posts I added all my content into the div but had the id of the style. Works just fine.

<div id=”specialtabs”>
tab content here
</div>

Example.

You still having this problem? I just had a similar problem. Tabs worked the day before and then didn’t work. Then they worked.

I’d say check here and make sure your short code is correct.

Or check your plugins. Maybe something else you updated or installed is messing with the Jquery.

Here was my problem at the other support pages:

Oh no problem. Yeah with working and trying the plugin and adding comments it was getting a little messy to see suggestions. And of course I just thought of something else lol.

Another nice thing I would love to see is the option to add more than one set of dates per entry. Currently there is Label,Start date, End date, and class. If there could be more than one start and end date per label that would be amazing.

Right now I’m using a blank entry as a title and then using other entries with an indent to identify it as part of a group. But having them all on one label entry would be nice and I could bypass that stuff. Then having the option for names/custom info on bars instead of number of days would complete the system.

Can’t wait to see your next version of the plugin. Good luck.

Just to be more organized. Here are questions/ideas:

1. Custom Date Fields. Allow for Month or Year view for long term projects.Start-date and End-date of the Gantt bars
2. Labels with links. I think this is already enabled but can’t seem to make it work. Imputing HMTL links will sort of work but won’t. Documentation on this would be very appreciated.
3. Support for more than one gantt chart per page/post. Tested and doesn’t work.
4. Custom chart size without the use of other css would be nice to see as well.
5. Chart option to start with current date instead of 1st of month.
6. Drag chart to pan(seems to be fixed by adding css but an easier off and on button in plugin settings would be nice.
7. Data source selection seems nice.
8. More styles activated by default. Would be nice for things to be indented or bold or have different background colors. Maybe a custom css box for entry fields to make things simpler and less modification to source css.

Sorry got one more idea or question. Is it possible to include support for more than one gantt chart per page/post?

Tried it and didn’t work for me. Thanks.
