First you need to make the tabs library load on the listing submit page.

Edit this theme file:

• \com_jreviews\jreviews\views\helpers\assets.php

Add 'jq.ui.tabs' to the js array in function ListingsCreate():

function ListingsCreate()
{
	$assets = array(
		'js'=>array('jreviews','jquery','jq.ui.core','jq.ui.tabs','jq.ui.rating','jq.ui.datepicker'
			,'jq.tooltip','jq.selectboxes','jq.jreviews.plugins'),
		'css'=>array('theme','theme.form','jq.tooltip','jq.ui.core','jq.ui.rating')
	);

and to the function ListingsEdit():

function ListingsEdit()
{
	$assets = array(
		'js'=>array('jreviews','jquery','jq.ui.core','jq.ui.tabs','jq.ui.rating','jq.ui.datepicker'
			,'jq.tooltip','jq.selectboxes','jq.jreviews.plugins'),
		'css'=>array('theme','theme.form','jq.tooltip','jq.ui.core','jq.ui.rating')
	);

Next, download this file:

• create_form.zip

extract create_form.thtml and replace the same file in this folder:

• /com_jreviews/jreviews/views/themes/default/listings

The modified file places all "general" fields into the first tab, and all field groups will be placed in their own tabs.

Your submit form will look similar to this:
