Small customization, prevent sanitizing?

AaronMorrison

Hi. I am attempting to use the Tabs GK5 module (it is currently under the Home menu item). When I enter the tab item's title, it will strip it of any link I wrap around it. Where can I go to remove whatever code does that? Thanks!

AaronMorrison Hi. I believe it's in settings. Please provide an access to joomla panel so I'll try.

Hi,

Kindly share the ftp account also.

I added some credentials to the site details. But it isn't working correctly. Just a minute...

AaronMorrison

I think the ftp credentials are working now...

AaronMorrison Hi. FTP access is not working. Can You please provide correct credentials?

AaronMorrison Hi again. No sorry. It works fine. I've copied it wrong. Will give You an answer in couple of minutes.

AaronMorrison Hi. I've checked, but the title of the tab is already used as a link to switch the tabs, so even having html tags with a link in this place will do nothing. Please try to explain it one more time, becuase I think must have missunderstood Your request.

AaronMorrison

Well right now it is set to change the tab when you hover over the title. It would be great if it did that but also acted as an external or internal url link when you actually clicked on it. I assumed that if the module's title field did not have its contents stripped it could work that way. Meaning, if I enter a title as
<a href="somelink.com">Item 1</a> ,when output it is
<li id="126" class="gkTab gkTabs-1" data-animation="default">Item 1</li> instead of
<li id="126" class="gkTab gkTabs-1" data-animation="default"><a href="somelink.com">Item 1</a></li>

AaronMorrison Hi. I've tried, but it does not act like it should. To make it work this way module would need to go a major recoding. I'm afraid we do not support such extensive customizations. But when I think about it users will not know that it requires to just hover over and the link and most of them will just click and be redirected to a page they may not want to go.

I understand your point. I guess my search will continue 🙂 This does not hurt my opinion of Gavick, you guys do great stuff. Thanks for looking into it for me.

AaronMorrison Hi. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Unfortunately this is not that easy to accomplish with a code we have there currently. I'm closing this thread now.
