Creating tabs from favorites
Introducing tabs
When you create a new Mingle project from scratch, by default it has the following tabs already set up:
- Overview - this is the home page or project dashboard. It's a Mingle wiki page and is the first tab you see after you sign in
- All - this lets you view all cards in Mingle. You can filter and sort by card properties and create favorites based on the results
- History - this tab lets you see what's been happening in the project and lets you view changes for cards, wiki pages and application source files
- Project admin - this lets you manage project settings, including team members, project properties and favorites
- Source - this lets you view the source repository, source versions and changes between source file versions (only visible if you have set up integration between Mingle and your team's source repository).
You can create additional tabs based on favorites or wiki pages. If a favorite doesn't already exist you can create it first. You can then create a tab from Project adminFavorites & tabs.
How to create a tab based on a favorite
- Sign in to Mingle and open the project with the favorites you want to convert to tabs (if you're not already working in the project). You don't need to sign in as a project administrator.
- Create the favorites you want to turn into tabs (if you haven't done so already).
-
Click the Project admin tab.
Mingle displays the Project settings page.
(Note: if you are logged in as a project Team Member, Mingle displays the Team page.) - Click the Favorites & tabs link. Mingle displays the Favorites & tabs page.
Click the Make tab link next to the favorites for which you want to create tabs.
Mingle creates a new tab with the name of the favorite, and moves the favorite into the Tabs section of the page. You can remove a tab at any time by clicking on the Make favorite link, which will keep the favorite but remove the tab.
