Profile tabs

The header contains a link to display the current user’s profile in a widget. The default implementation displays two tabs in the widget: Profile and History.

You can add custom tabs to the profile widget by extending the ProfilePanelTab class. The following example creates a My Articles profile tab that lists the current user’s 10 most recently published articles.

showLineNumbers {4,7,11,18,37}

4. Declares a class that extends from ProfilePanelTab—the class that outputs to a custom profile widget.
7. Overrides the method writeHtml, which directs output to the custom tab.
11. Retrieves the current user’s 10 most recently published articles.
18. Creates the new tab with the label My Articles. Any nested page.write statements write to this tab.
37. Loops through the found articles and output the headline and date published for each.
