Author Topic: add a tab which displays multiple custom data groups on the contact view page (Read 2637 times)

Hi guys,

I want to add a tab to the view contact page.
There will be contact summary (same as the content in default summary tab) and a few custom data groups displayed within this tab.
Those custom data groups include multiple records groups and membership custom data groups.

Do you guys have any solutions?

Cheers,
George.

George:

I would suggest to should use Tab Hook in CiviCRM.

Thanks Kurund,
Unfortunately the Tab Hook appears to only allow for 1 URL.

What I require is the ability to have multiple data groups on the one 'tab'. For example, I want to have 'basic contact details' in a 'block' and also a list of membership transactions in another 'Block' under the one tab.

I would have imagined this has come up a few times but I have not been able to find a solution.

Can you think of anything that resolve this issue?

George.

I am not sure what you mean? You can add 'n' extra tabs using this hook.

Check http://svn.civicrm.org/civicrm/branches/v3.0/drupal/civitest.module.sample

Hi,

Why don't you add it directly in the summary tab?

You can fetch additional content and display it in any existing template (eg a tab) using the {crmAPI} tag.

Thanks for help, guys. I need some time to see what is the best solution. I'm new to php and civicrm&drupal.
