So, I installed the tabber plug-in and activated it and it doesn't seem to work.
Here are the details...
I see the Tabber menu in the Tools section in my dashboard and I see the tabber widget present in the active widget area . However, after I create a tabber in the Tools section and then drop it over onto the sidebar, there's nothing more I can do. I can't actually add widgets to the tabber widget itself. Please let me know what I can do to change this. I'm running WP 3.2.1 and the theme is Twenty eleven.
Thanks,
John

Hi John, 
Thanks for posting about this. Hmmm, to double confirm:
1 : You said you first dropped the Tabber onto the sidebar, correct?
2 : Basically, you drop your widgets into the widget sidebars named "Tabber - TITLE" where "TITLE" is the title of your Tabber Widget. This is the Widget area where you drop widgets into, and NOT the actual "Tabber Widget" widget under the "Available Widgets"
3 : Then, when you're done dropping any widget you want into the Tabber WIDGET section (areas ALREADY defined and present on the right hand side under the existing Widgets sections), you drag the (for the first time, since befoe this only the actual Tabber Widget SECTIOn was involved) "Tabber Widget" widget from the "Available Widgets" area into ANY widget section you want (NOT into the Tabber section itself).
4 : That "Tabber Widget" will then show the widgets you put into the "Tabber - TITLE" section.
Does that make sense? Please let me know. Here's an example of Tabber Widget working on TwentyEleven:
Hope that helps!

Bes

I've having the same problem. The issue is that the Widget Area where you drop the widgets into never actually shows up. All that show up are the widget areas already defined by the theme - "Sidebar" and "Top Ad" (I'm using StandardTheme). I've tried every possible order of doing things and it still doesn't show up.

Hi Bilal,
Thanks for posting the reply. Could you start a new topic please? That way we can focus on your problem separately and on its own.
In that new post, please let us know what other plugins you have activated, a screenshot of your Widgets area (which will show us what's missing), and what themes you're using. Thanks!

Bes,
I'm having the same problem. The Tabber Widget Widget is not showing up at all, so I cannot drop a text widget or any other kind of widget into it and then select that for the actual tabber widget to show up. Does that make sense? The screenshot is hard to read. I had to blow it up 150%. Was this ever posted to an individual thread? The top thread was never responded to. It appears there's no support for this widget, but I think this is potentially one of the most useful widgets at iThemes.

Kristen, thanks for the reply. Could you please start a new topic with full details please? (more info below too)
Chris, thanks for posting this too! Just to confirm: we found out the reason for this for your site (in the webinar), correct? You have to create Tabber Widgets first in the Tools --> Tabber Widgets area, and then the Tabber Widget widget will show the proper fields in the Tabber drop-down.
Bilal and everyone else, you can try the above highlighted info also to see if that's what is happening to you.

I would love to use this feature, as it would solve a big need for us.
I followed the directions you gave Kristen (above). I created a Tabber Widget with 3 tabs. In the Widgets screen I put a text box in each Tabber Widget area with some sample text. I saved the text and tabber widgets, but when I view the site the tabber Widget doesn't appear. Would be grateful for any help.
Using: WooThemes Canvas, WordPress 3.4.1.
