Titles shown when original blocktitle is set to <none>

got this problem too ...

ok, I will look into this.
Thanks,
Katherine

When you configure a block to give it a title (or set title to ) and change its visibility settings, this has no bearing on how the block will be output when it is pulled programmatically. Quick Tabs pulls blocks programmatically and so it completely ignores block configuration settings. This is not a bug; however it would be possible to add a new feature where you have the option to have the block's title hidden (you would choose this each time you add a block to a tab) - so I am changing this to a feature request :-) It shouldn't take much to implement so I will probably add it to the next release.

Could anyone provide some detailed CSS code to show how to fix this problem? i.e. where should we place the 'display: none' ? i am running drupal 5.3 and still cannot hide block titles. Please help, thax

+1 for this feature

Question: would it be ok if this were a configuration setting instead of something you would choose every time you add a block to a QT block? I just don't want to clutter the whole quicktabs creation form full of different options so I thought maybe for this one it could be a general setting, where you choose to either have all the block titles inside your QT blocks hidden or not. Comments?

thanks!

it's ok for me, in my case the title of the block is the same as the tabs title. So having this feature is really great.

Thanx so much Katherine for all the work done. ;-) You rock !

You could always just add another tab on the QT settings page to select which blocks you want the names to show up on. It doesn't bother me personally if all of my titles go away--in fact, it would be best for me if they were just inside a special div so I could theme them to have a smaller size--but I imagine that there will be people who use this module who would prefer a "sometimes" solution.

Thanks for working on this. If you want to look at my implementation, it's at http://music.babelup.com/

ah yes - I see! Definitely gotta hide those block titles :-)
OK, well doing it this way also happens to be MUCH easier than adding the option for each individual block you add to a QT (but I swear that wasn't why I suggested it! ;-)
Should get this done in the next couple of days

I have now added this as a new configuration setting. Please update to the 1.2 release and you'll see the option to hide block titles.

It seems like the package got corrupted, or maybe cron's not done... I'm getting a "file doesn't exist" error right now when I try to d/l from d.o. I'll check back later and report my results... thanks for working on this!

That's really weird - I've no idea what the problem is there but hopefully it will get resolved soon. I'm starting to think d.o's packaging script has it in for me - there was a different problem when I added the 1.1 release :-(
Anyway, in the meantime you can check it out from cvs.

The problem with the tarball link seems to have been resolved now

I'm on vacation and will test it on Monday.

Thanx a lot Kat for this, I have made some tests and it works perfectly ... ;-)

Tested on D5.7 with PHP5 and MySQL - it works. :-)

Marking as fixed. Feel free to reopen if you plan on expanding this functionality later.
