CommonSpot Custom Tab Bar Demo


Overview:

  • Several people have requested the ability to insert a tab bar like the ECU home page above the main image. The idea of this tab bar is to sit below the page title and above the main image.
  • Previously, this feature was available as a customscript. We have created the custom element to gradually replace the usage of the customscript for easier maintenance and usability.
  • If you are currently using the customscript, you can replace it by adding the "ECU custom tab bar" element, then deleting the customscript.

Instructions:

  1. Create a New Page
  2. On your page properties options, "Display Options" tab, choose a Full Image or No Image for the Image Layout option.
  3. Under the "Advanced" tab, check the "Custom Image" box.
  4. On your page, click the ghost text to define the layout of the section. (Use defaults)
  5. Insert an element, choose the 'ECU custom tab bar' element under the Custom Elements category.
  6. Click the ghost text to define the element.
  7. Select the options for the tab bar, and enter the text and links for your tabs.
  8. Select Finish.
  9. Click on the element properties icon and choose custom render handler.
  10. Select "ECU custom tab bar" radio button as your render handler
  11. Publish Changes.
