migrating static HTML page with TABS to DRUPAL
Hi, I have to move our static HTML site to DRUPAL. I am one week young user of drupal and I am reading and learning from others experiences. I will appreciate if you can give me your suggestions on the best way to restructure the following similar page (with tabs) to DRUPAL? http://www.cs.sunysb.edu/people/faculty.html Thanks in advanace!
You would use Views to create a page for each tab. Under page settings, you will find the menu options. You should make a default menu tab with one page and a plain menu tab with the others. On Nov 18, 2013, at 10:43 AM, mullick wrote:

You can check out the site that I am working on right now. http://docresource.org the front page is made using the quicktabs module (which is AWESOME!) and a LOT of custom CSS and HTML but no custom PHP. I use quicktabs on another section of the site for horizontal tabs too. if you’re interested you’ll need to register. which is free.

Thank you you for responding. I am so new to this. Therefore please apologize any stupid questions that I may ask. I have our theme for the HOME page that is page.tpl.php which has a header content area and footer. For the conenet area I am using 3 column stacked page layout. Mostly all sub pages have content on the LEFT side and navigation on the right hand side. So what I understand is that I would create 4 different views for 4 tabs.Should I have to create another theme that would be applied to this page and other such sub pages? Where will I place these 4 views? What matrial should I read to understand this concept? On Mon, Nov 18, 2013 at 11:41 AM, Darren Oh < darrenoh@sidepotsinternational.com> wrote:

I’m currently doing the same thing but using Panels instead of Views. I don’t know if one way is better than the other. With Panels you can create a page layout that suits your site then create the theme. I am then just adding a new page for each tab and linking the content to it.

You can also use quicktabs module (https://drupal.org/project/quicktabs) in addition to Views. On 18 Nov 2013 17:43, "mullick" <vibanu@gmail.com> wrote:
