redomino.tabsandslides 0.8.0

jquerytools tabs and slide implementations

A collection of useful views and portlets

The main purpose of this product is to provide series of useful views and portlets. Each of these can be applied to a folder or a collection.

Views

• Gallery: A scrollable carousel.

• Tabs: Show the contents inside a tab.

• Gallery with preview (image bottom or Image top): A scrollable carousel that shows a preview of each content.

• Slideshow: Shows elements inside a folder (or collection) as a slideshow.

Portlets

This product provides two portlets.For each portlet you can choose among three different views:

• Gallery

• Tabs

• Slideshow

The portlets are:

• TabsAndSlides Collection portlet: Show the items of a collection. You can limit the elements to show, randomize the order of the items, show the border of the portlet or not.

• TabsAndSlides Folder portlet: Show the items inside a folder. If you assign this portlet to a non folderish content type It will show the siblings of the content. The content can be optionally filtered using a tal expression. This is a good reference: http://www.owlfish.com/software/simpleTAL/tal-guide.html

Customize the views

It’s very easy customize the look and feel of the views !!! For example each of the content use a browserview to show its rappresentation. The browserview are registered in the adapters.zcml (inside the browser package):

<browser:page
    for="*"
    name="gallery_adapter"
    class=".adapters.Gallery"
    permission="zope2.View"
    />

You can customize the apperance using a more specific Interface:

<browser:page
    for=".interfaces.IMyCustomContent"
    name="gallery_adapter"
    class=".adapters.Gallery"
    permission="zope2.View"
    />

or a layer interface:

<browser:page
    for="*"
    name="gallery_adapter"
    class=".adapters.Gallery"
    permission="zope2.View"
    layer=".interfaces.IThemeSpecific"
    />

Customize javascript configuration

The js configuration is overridable (redomino.tabsandslides.config.js).
