K2 Support, New Parameters and More! Check the Update!
The new version of Tabs for Joomla extension - DJ-Tabs was just released.
This is a significant update that brings many new features.
Below, I'll explain the most important things you should know about this update. In short, we've added K2 support, the option to navigate through tabs with arrows and the tab key on the keyboard (WCAG compliance), mouse hover to open the tab, a refreshed control panel, and more. You can read about the most important features and check all the changes in the changelog below.
K2 Support
Now, when K2 is installed, you'll find two new additional options when creating a new item:
-
K2 Single Item
-
K2 Category
When added, they'll be marked on the items list in the backend with the K2 icon for easier identification:
First Image from Article's Content
This is a really great and wanted feature. DJ Tabs will scan your article, pull the first image, and then use it.
Articles from the Last X Days
You can show only articles from the last X days (based on the current date).
Second 'Date Format' Parameter
The default "y.m.d" article's date format can now be changed.
Open on Mouse Hover
You can now select whether tab items should be displayed by clicking (by default) or hovering over the mouse.
Transition Speed New Parameter
You can now choose a duration of Tabs/Accordion items by switching animation.
Scroll To Accordion Item New Parameter
You can now choose if a page should be scrolled to the top of an active accordion item.
Other New Features Worth Mentioning
- Refreshed Control Panel component view's layout
- Displaying content in Articles added by {loadposition} and {loadmodule} tags
- Refactored views structure to ease global template changes (component/module template files separated into common file partials)
