For some reason, this isnt creating the tab 'RightCol'. Ive read the tutorial 3 times.
class HomePage extends Page {
static $db = array(
'SideText' => 'HTMLText'
);
}class HomePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.RightCol', new TextField('SideText'));
return $fields;
}
} -

Hi
You have specified the data-type of db field SideText as HTMLText but then declared a new form-field of the type TextField. This should really be of the type HTMLEditorField if you want the form to display HTML.
That might be why the tab isn't being rendered... -

Thanks for all the help guys, i simply had the getCMSFields function under the wrong class.
