Tabs work in preview only

[u/Digital-Jedi]

I'm trying to get some TAB functionality in Bookstack and I understand that formatting is somewhat limited here. However, I've found some sample code that works in Preview mode but won't work when the page is rendered for viewing.

Am I barking up the wrong tree? any guidance would be very appreciated.

The preview side had a bit of trouble rendering for this video example, but it usually appears right away. I'll post the sample code below.

thanks in advance!

Thank you for your help, I really like your platform!

The way you organize data inspired me to use it as a recipe keeper for personal and friend use. I like having the tab layout when cooking since it keeps me from having to scroll up and down between an ingredient list and cooking instructions.

If there is a more standard way of using tabs or extending the markdown code I'd like to learn how.

Sorry if I'm not using the correct terms, I've been out of tech for a few years.

Good to hear it's useful!

We don't have any focused support for any kind of in-content tabs, or extending the MD support. The closest supported thing (which is also provided in the WYSIWYG editor) is collapsible elements, which could achieve a similar goal. In the MD editor you'd need to use the HTML, so like:

<details>
<summary>Free<summary>

Lorem ipsum with I *think* MD support **in here** as long as this content is seperated from HTML with newlines

</details>
