at first let me say sorry, as I am not sure if the described problem isn't just one cos of me being stupid.

Im trying to get vertical tabs on the user account edit page. I have several field groups, with various fields in each. I set each field group to "vertical tab" as for "widget type" I chose open on each group. All I get is one of the field groups appearing in a vertical tab and the rest of the groups and fields just disappear. So basically I can only get one field group to actually work as a vertical tab. I have tried various settings like setting one to "vertical tab group" and others to vertical tab but it doesnt work out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
