Title: Multiple "custom" tabs Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Multiple "custom" tabs * Resolved [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/) * After some testing it seems that if I add multiple “custom” tabs I just get whichever one I have defined last multiple times. * I assume that this currently works as designed but I’d like to make a feature request for the future that supports multiple instances of the custom tab type… each with their own unique configuration. Other than this feature I like the plugin very much and it works well. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-flybox/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-flybox/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 16 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/page/2/?output_format=md) * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225347) * How many custom tabs were you thinking? I have a couple other things I am doing on the plugin and can try to add more custom tabs after it… * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225350) * Thanks for the quick response! * I personally needed 4 but it would be great if any custom ones you added had their own individual configuration. * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225353) * I wish it were easy to add more, but the current way it is written, it’s not. I’ll get it though in the next day or two if I don’t run into problems! Thanks * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225538) * I added 3 more custom tabs. Please update to v5.16 and let me know if you have any problems. Thanks! * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225563) * Thanks! Added functionality works great. I’m getting an odd issue now though where the tabs are extended about 20 pixels when the page is first loaded some of the time. This usually remedies itself after clicking on one of the tabs and closing it but I don’t think that’s the designed behavior. * (Note: I’m positioning to the right but the behavior is the same if I switch to the left) See this screenshot: [http://cl.ly/image/18272v1v263Z](http://cl.ly/image/18272v1v263Z) * I also can’t get any of the “show options” to work. I’d prefer to just show on the homepage and I’ve tried that checkbox as well as the page-id option but neither work for me. I switched to a default theme since I suspected a theme conflict, but it still isn’t working. * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225578) * I made a few changes over night. I fixed the show on what pages settings. Please update to 5.17 and let me know if that helped. * As for the tabs being 20 px off, part of this update may have fixed it. So try that first… I see you are using your own tabs. Are the width and height set correctly under each custom tabs setting? Like if your blue tab is 40px wide, be sure to put 40 in the width setting for that tab. If it is still not fixed, could you please send me a link to one of your custom tabs and the settings for width and height you are using for it so I can try it myself? Thanks! * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225600) * The positioning issue I was having is fixed. Thanks. * The “show on what page” settings still don’t work for me. I’ve actually noticed that sometimes changing any setting causes them not to display. I haven’t found what triggers them to display again and usually just have to try adjusting several of the settings back and forth and saving between until they reappear. * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225603) * Hmm.. What version are you using? If the latest, maybe delete the plugin and reinstall, or check all the boxes, save, then uncheck all except show on front page, show for guests, and show for logged in. * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225610) * I think I see what I was doing wrong. * You need to select what page/post type (Main Page, Pages, Posts, Archives, Feeds, Search) **AND** what type of user this applies to (guest or logged in) * A small change to the admin UI might make this a little more clear. * Working great after I selected “show on front page, show for guests, and show for logged in” like you suggested above. * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225612) * Yea I see what you mean. I will add some clarification to it on the next update. Thanks for the great suggestions! * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225655) * I sporadically get this issue where part of the tabs are cut off (in Safari on a mac). Is this the issue you describe in the read-me fie that you haven’t been able to solve when the tabs are right aligned? * [http://cl.ly/image/351f0M3m1O2w](http://cl.ly/image/351f0M3m1O2w) * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225656) * I bet the tabs render to the edge before the page does and thus before the scroll bars are added to the screen. I will look into a solution tomorrow when I get a chance * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225664) * I bet you are right. It sometimes displays correctly (i can force it by clearing the cache) but once the js is cached it seems to render before the scrollbars are added. * Plugin Author [cconoly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconoly/) * (@cconoly) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225666) * Well would it help if I added an option to render once at the page load, and then rerender again after 1 or 2 or 3 seconds after page load? * Thread Starter [weschilders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weschilders/) * (@weschilders) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-custom-tabs/#post-5225667) * I don’t really need an option. It could always render after the page load and then think it would never be an issue.
