On this demo page, the tabs in the sidebar-2 position are stacked rather than side by side. I'm not sure if this is due to a misconfiguration on my part, but I didn't do anything unusual, so I am likewise unsure if this is an issue in the framework somewhere.

Also, are there settings (outside of less or css) for tabs chrome?

template Base3 (from quickstart)
J3.2.3 + T3BS3

I don't think it was ever thought that folks would use the sidebar for Chrome tabs so styling is for normal nav lists - try adding this

#sidebar-2 ul.nav.nav-tabs > li {clear: none;}

cha-CHING!

What's the trick to getting a bullet to appear next to ul li items in an accordion in the sidebar?

strip tags = no
render plugin = yes

I'm getting a

404 - Category not found

for that link now

maybe it's time i took some time off.

You will need to overide this

.zentools li {
list-style-type: none;
}

using the moduleID so it targets this module only otherwise it will break zentool modules
