Custom Tab – make it as primary tab

Hi @eliac7

Follow these steps:

1. Go to Ultimate Member > Settings
2. Then Navigate to Appearance > Profile Menu
3. Select your custom tab (Οι αγγελ?ε? μου) from “Profile menu default tab” dropdown.
4. Click on “Save Changes”

Thanks

Dear Asif,
Thanks for the reply.

Well, I knew that option but due to using the if (is_user_logged_in() && !in_array(um_user('role'), $hide_from_roles_3otab)), it just disappears that option.

I am using that “if” because I want a specific role owns that tab and not every role on my site. So, I think there should be a snippet or a line of code available that I could add to my function to make it primary.

Thanks for your time!

Hi @eliac7

Try adding the !is_admin() to the condition.

if (is_user_logged_in() && !in_array(um_user('role'), $hide_from_roles_3otab) && !is_admin() ){
   
}

Regards,

Thanks for the reply, but I don’t know what your answer truly answers. My issue is that my custom profile tab is not the active one when I visit the profile. If I remove the above “if”, it displays me the option from the appearance menu but if I add that if(which I need it), then it just “hides” me the option to choose which tab I want to be primary. I tried the && !is_admin() but nothing changed :/ (and no option shows up on appearance menu).

Hi @eliac7

Please try this code snippet:

function custom_tab_3( $tabs ) {

     $hide_from_roles_3otab = array('um_custom_role_2','um_custom_role_3', 'administrator');

     $tabs[ 'aggelies' ] = array(
		'name'   => 'Οι αγγελ?ε? μου',
		'custom' => true
    );

    if (is_user_logged_in() && in_array(um_user('role'), $hide_from_roles_3otab) && !is_admin() ) {
         unset( $tabs[ 'aggelies' ] );
	
}

	UM()->options()->options[ 'profile_tab_' . 'aggelies' ] = true;

	return $tabs;
}
add_filter( 'um_profile_tabs', 'custom_tab_3', 2 );

Regards,

Dear Champ,
Thanks for the snippet. Seems not working, but it’s okay! I would like to ask one more thing. I want to make the above tab available only to the current user who has that role. I mean, to be restricted only to the current user and no one with the same role can see that. Any ideas on how this can be done?

Hi @eliac7

You can use this condition to check if the current viewing profile is the logged-in user’s profile:

if (um_is_myprofile()) {

}

Dear Champ,
Thanks a lot! You are a lifesaver. Nonetheless, still, the code about the default tab doesn’t work. Let me explain better. I have two roles. Each role has a different tab. So, let’s say the “Business” role has the A tab and the “Consumer” role has the B tab. I want the “Business” role to have as primary his tab “A” and the “Consumer” role has as the primary the B role. If I delete the “if” on the above code, it appears on the Appearance Menu the option to choose the tab I want as default, but if I check the “A” tab to be as primary, the “B” tab is not checked as primary (it seems logic), so this is what I am trying to do. I have successfully selected the A tab as primary for the “Business” role but for the role with the other tab (Consumer with B tab) is not selected as primary.

Hopefully, I made my self more clear.

Best Regards,
Elias
