<p>Metro Tabs adds block-editor (Gutenberg) blocks for building tabbed content. You add a <strong>Metro Tabs: Tab Group</strong> block, then add one or more <strong>Metro Tabs: Tab Item</strong> blocks inside it. Each tab has a heading (the label visitors click) and a content area where you can add any blocks—paragraphs, images, lists, etc. On the front end, visitors see a simple tab bar and panes; clicking a tab switches the visible content without reloading the page.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Tab Group block</strong> – Container for one set of tabs. You can use multiple Tab Group blocks on the same page for different tab sets.</li>
<li><strong>Tab Item block</strong> – A single tab: editable heading and a content area that supports any blocks (paragraphs, headings, images, etc.).</li>
<li><strong>No JavaScript libraries</strong> – Uses vanilla JavaScript only; no jQuery or jQuery UI.</li>
<li><strong>Block API version 3</strong> – Compatible with the current block editor (WordPress 6.3+ iframe editor).</li>
<li><strong>Lightweight styling</strong> – Discrete front-end styles (underline-style active tab); you can override with your theme or custom CSS.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How to use</h4>
<ol>
<li>In the block editor, add a <strong>Metro Tabs: Tab Group</strong> block (search for “Metro Tabs” or “Tab Group”).</li>
<li>Inside the group, you’ll see placeholder Tab Items (e.g. “Tab 1”, “Tab 2”). Click each <strong>Metro Tabs: Tab Item</strong> block and:
<ul>
<li>Edit the <strong>tab heading</strong> (the text shown on the tab).</li>
<li>Add any blocks in the <strong>tab content</strong> area (paragraphs, images, etc.).</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Add or remove Tab Item blocks as needed. You can add more Tab Groups elsewhere on the page for separate tab sets.</li>
<li>Publish or update. On the front end, the tab bar and panes are built automatically; clicking a tab switches the visible pane.</li>
</ol>
<p>No settings or configuration are required. The plugin enqueues its script and styles on the front end when the page contains tab blocks.</p>
<h4>Compatibility</h4>
<ul>
<li>Requires WordPress 6.0 or higher (block editor).</li>
<li>Requires PHP 8.0 or higher.</li>
</ul>
