Description

Why do you need it? It makes things so much easier when you have a lot of content to put on one page and tabs would be ideal. cTabs lets you add a tabbed content area directly in your post or page, without having to edit the theme template.

cTabs comes with a nice default style but you can edit it anyway you would like through the built in CSS editor in options menu. If you change the css and want to go back to the default, just reset the css in the options menu.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I get a huge margin above my tabs?

WordPress wants you to place all of your shortcodes on a line by themselves. I try to keep the line above and below my shortcode empty when I use them. If there is content on the line above, below, or beside the [shortcode] it will add a lot of
‘s to the top of the tabs.

Can I have multiple tabgroups on one page?

Currently no. I plan to make that option available soon.

Can I customize the CSS?

Yes. cTabs is very customizable directly from the admin options menu. Modify the CSS however you want. Option to reset to default is available.
