['''Note:''' ''This article does not yet attempt to make the process easy for the beginner, but here are the basic steps involved. Advanced developers are invited to expand on this article!'']

'''How to add tabs to the individuals page.'''

* Locate '''individual_ctrl.php''' in the '''/includes/controllers''' directory of your PGV test site and create a backup of the original.
* Edit '''individual_ctrl.php''' in your PHP editor of choice.
* Add your new tab to the ''tabarray'' array around line 83 of '''individual_ctrl.php'''.
var $tabarray = array("facts"......
* Save your changes to '''individual_ctrl.php'''.
* Locate '''individual.php''' in the root of your PGV test site.
* Because the tabs are handled through AJAX, you will need to alter the JavaScript in '''individual.php'''.
:*Add your tab to the ''tabid'' array around lines 242 AND 245.
:* Add another false to the ''loadedtabs'' array on lines below each of the above.
:* Add a "door" for your tab near line 407.
<dd id="door7">.....
:* Add the HTML for your tab by copying the base template from one of the other tabs, for example the media tab
* Upload '''individual_ctrl.php''' to the '''/includes/controllers''' directory of your PGV test site.
* Test out the new tab.
