    • http://www.ilias.de/docu/goto_docu_wiki_wpage_481_1357.html
  • Rules:
    • Usage:
      1. Content Tabs MUST relate to the object described by the Content Title of the Main Content Section, meaning they are always contextual.
    • Wording:
      1. First Tab MUST be labeled “Content” for container objects (objects that contain other objects  such as Categories, Groups, Courses and Folders that can be moved around) and Cluster Objects (objects that arrange other objects but are a mere shell by themselves (Sessions, Item Groups)).
      2. First Tab MUST NOT be labeled “Content” for content objects which contain sub-items (sub-items have properties and sometimes settings of their own but can not be moved around, objects containing sub-items are e.g. Data Collection, Exercises, Booking Pool, Survey, Test, etc.). It’s label MUST be identical to the label of the sub-items or item displayed by this Tab.
      3. Second Tab is named as follows:
        • Join/Attend/Info/Introduction/Overview/Register/Registry/About (to be decided) for courses and groups
        • Attend for Sessions
        • Download for Files
        • Introduction for Wikis
        • Start for Learning Modules HTML/ILIAS/SCORM, Surveys and Tests
    • Ordering (For Repository Objects):
      1. If no Sub-Item is opened, Content Tabs MUST be in the following order:
        • Content-related tabs (see wording rule above)
        • Start Tab of content is a "separate view" (like SCORM)  / Info Tab for information about object (like Course). This second Tab SHOULD NOT be used at all in most cases. The following objects do not need an Info or start Tab :
          • Blog
          • Booking Pool
          • Category
          • Chatroom
          • Cloud Object
          • Data Collection
          • Exercise
          • Folder
          • Forum
          • Glossary
          • Mediacast
          • Questionpools
          • Study Program
          • Weblink
        • Settings
        • Members or similar user lists
        • Learning Progress tab
        • All other tabs (not in this list)
        • Metadata tab
        • Export tab
        • Permissions tab
      2. If a Sub-Item is opened (e.g. page of Learning Module):
        • First Tab MUST link back to the containing Object, this MUST be indicated by a Previous Glyph.
