Tabs Widget for Page Builder

Description

Page Builder by SiteOrigin editor is great, but it lacks a “tabs widget”, so we created one.

The “Tabs for Page Builder” widget allows you to add multiple tabs with a tab name and tab content. The tab content is using the Page Builder editor, so you can build your own layout inside the tab content (add widgets, set columns, …).

The front-end display is the same as the tabs in Bootstrap framework.

More details about this plugin can be found in this post.

Note: the front-end design is “bare bones”, so only the default Bootstrap CSS is used. So you should style it to your own liking with custom CSS. Maybe we will add some custom skins in the future, but I can’t make any promises.

The tabs widget is not working properly?

If for example the first tab always remains active, than this is an indicator that your theme (or another plugin) is using an older version of Twitter Bootstrap. In this plugin we use the Bootstrap version 4.x, so some HTML is different from the older versions (v3.x, v2.x). You can solve this by adding the bellow code to your theme functions.php file:

add_filter( 'pt-tabs/use_older_bootstrap_layout', '__return_true' );

Also make sure that you have the latest version of this Tabs widget plugin.

The plugin authors are super helpful! They kept up troubleshooting my issue, conflict with child theme, till the problems were solved. The plugin itself is great: intuitive and lucid back end and just looks sharp for the website visitors. I’d like to thank them again for everything!
