RM 1.2 Tabs

[kingjavo]

How do I get the tabs you use here on my RM? Updates, Discussions, etc.

Here's what I'm seeing on my site after creating my first Resource.

Have you configured the category to create a resource thread on submission?

The specific option is "Automatically Create Thread in Forum".

You will need to resubmit any resources after doing so.

The Updates tab appears automatically once you update a resource.

Ok. Thanks. One quick thing, I uploaded a new resource and added a Cost to it. It's internal, so it's an attached resource.

How does the collection of money work? I notice you can just download it. Plus there's a "buyers" section?? What's that used for?

Thanks in advance.

Payment processing is external.

The purchase button would simply be linked to a URL such as starting a conversation, a PP address, etc. and there would be no attached resource.

The specific option is "Automatically Create Thread in Forum".

But where does it create the resource thread?

 

[Paul B]

Wherever you specify it in the options for that category.

So then what does the commercial cost option do?

 

[kingjavo]

Wherever you specify it in the options for that category.

But I just want a Discussion tab on the resource like you have on XenForo. Can I achieve the same thing?

 

[Paul B]

If it's a paid resource, it should not be attached to the resource entry and payment must be handled externally.

Yes.

[kingjavo]

Yes.

Haha, but doesn't it create a thread elsewhere and NOT a tab on the Resource?

 

[Paul B]

The option creates a thread linked with the resource, which automatically adds a "Discussion" tab to the resource ... which links to the thread.

Got it. Thanks!
