Hi
Query: I am trying to do sub-sub-tabs off a sub-tab.
I think I am doing it correctly. The sub-sub-tab link paths are viable but they are not visible below its sub-tab.
Documentation: This discussion, I think, would be a good submission to documentation, if it would help.
- How DEEP of sub-tabbing can one do in Views 2?
- If on one-level of Sub-Tabbing, then can I make them deeper?
- I am beginning to wonder if this a theme-ing issue (I am using Zen-Classic).
All of the following entries are all made within the same view tag
Using the Views Editor, I was able to create Tabs (2 Tabs labeled Projects
and Project Tasks
) as follows (cool!):
| Page Name | Path | Menu |
Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Default | NA | NA |
NA |
| Root Page "Projects": | projects_view/, | Normal menu entry |
0 |
| Default Tab Page "Projects" | projects_view/projects | Default menu tab |
0 |
| Page Name | Path | Menu |
Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Default | NA | NA |
NA |
| Tab Page "Project Tasks" | projects_view/project_tasks | Menu tab |
1 |
Again using the Views Editor, I was able to create Sub-Tabs off of one of any of the previous create Tabs (very cool!).
This illustrates creating (5) sub-tabs off the "Projects" (first) tab as follows:
| Page Name | Path | Menu | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Root Page "Projects:All": | projects_view/projects | Normal menu entry |
0 |
| Default Sub-Tab Page "Projects:All" | projects_view/projects/all | Default menu tab |
0 |
| Sub-Tab Page "Projects:Not Defined" | projects_view/projects/not_defined | Menu tab |
1 |
| Tab Page "Projects:Proposed" | projects_view/projects/proposed | Menu tab |
2 |
| Tab Page "Projects:In Planning" | projects_view/projects/in_planning | Menu tab |
3 |
| Tab Page "Projects:In Progress" | projects_view/projects/in_progress | Menu tab |
4 |
| Tab Page "Projects:On Hold" | projects_view/projects/on_hold | Menu tab |
5 |
Here is where sub-sub-tabs views do not show:
Again using the Views Editor, I was able to create Sub-Sub-Tabs off of one of any of the previous create SubTabs (but here is where these Sub-Sub Tabs do not become visible!).
I am wondering if this a theme-ing issue (I am using Zen-Classic)???
This illustrates creating (3) sub-sub-tabs off the "Projects:In Progress" (fifth) sub-tab as follows (notice the Weighting, it starts where the sub-tab "Projects:In Progress" left off.):
| Page Name | Path | Menu | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Root Page "Projects:In Progress:All": | projects_view/projects/in_progress | Normal menu entry |
4 |
| Default Sub-Sub-Tab Page "Projects:In Progress:All" | projects_view/projects/in_progress/all | Default menu tab |
4 |
| Sub-Sub-Tab Page "Projects:In Progress:Green" | projects_view/projects/in_progress/green | Menu tab |
5 |
| Sub-Sub-Tab Page "Projects:In Progress:Yellow" | projects_view/projects/in_progress/yellow | Menu tab |
6 |
| Sub-Sub-Tab Page "Projects:In Progress:Red" | projects_view/projects/in_progress/red | Menu tab |
7 |
NOTE: The paths of the three non-visible sub-sub-tabs (Green, Yellow, & Red) are active viable links !!
It would be really very cool!!! for my site to have sub-sub tabs if it is possible.
Any ideas on how I can achieve this?
Thanks

You probably would've saved
You probably would've saved yourself some time:
From the 'menu' topic (the question mark to get to this is available while editing the menu settings).
This is a limitation of Drupal itself, not Views.
Quirky Idea: Views within Views?
I just had one quirky idea as a possible work-around, is it possible to put a view within a view?
In other words, render a view within a view's menu tab.

Viewfield module
Hi Jeff,
Sorry for the late reply.
I think the module Viewfield is what your are looking for.
http://drupalmodules.com/module/viewfield
It can put a view into a field of a node and thereby make it into another view.
Good luck

You could also insert a view
You could also insert a view in the header area of the view. There is a module that enables an input format to do so.
Sub Tabs
You're already 2 levels beyond me, so I would be happy just to know how to add a sub tab to an existing tab on my front page. Can you please help? I've exhausted my resoursces, loaded so called "nice menus" , which work but I don't want two menus on my home page. Thanks for any advise, help or reference.
