 * Hi,
    I’m currently in the process of making a plugin for the automatic generation
   of dynamic tabs and their management via the administration panel.
 * I’m not overly sure that there is a huge demand for this, but when I was researching
   how to make dynamic tabs on my installation of WordPress, I wished there was 
   a plugin for it, so I thought I would give it a go.
 * So the purpose of this post…
    basically I was wondering if anyone has any views
   on what a dynamic tabs plugin should do.
 * I currently have a working plugin that via an admin panel allows the user to 
   add, delete, and organise tabs which link to any page or category. All that is
   needed to use the installed plugin is to call a function from theme. Css formatting
   of the tabs can be included in the theme or managed from the admin panel.
 * I have been debating whether the tabs admin panel should be under the management
   section since the user will be managing the tabs (updating, adding and deleting),
   or under the options section since once set, the user probably will not change
   the settings very often and as I work more on the plugin I am adding more ‘options’(
   ie options for automatic css generation and vertical tabs). A third idea I had
   was to make two separate admin pannels – one for management and one for options.
   Does anybody know if there is an official stance or preference on this? Would
   two admin panels for one plugin be acceptable or would it be better to keep everything
   in one place?
 * If anyone has an opinion – I’d be pleased to hear it. Good idea/bad idea?
 * Cheers
    Budoink

 * I think the plugin would be well received. I know that the ultimate tag warrior
   plugin uses the manage and options tabs as you are asking. But I don’t think 
   there’s an official stance. You may want to contact the hackers list

 * Okay, I have made the dynamic tabs plugin and it seems to be working all ok.
   
   If anybody would be interested in trying it out, your comments and suggestions
   would be most appreciated – whether they’re on the plugin itself or my explainations…
   whatever 🙂
 * if you could leave comments here or on my site that would be great
