Adding custom product tabs to 2.01

Use this filter to add custom tabs -> ‘woocommerce_product_tabs’

i did, read the code above?

NO you didn’t…i said use “this filter”…I didn’t say use this action…Your code uses action.

any documentation on it anywhere? when i use it, it removes all of my tabs

If you open up tabs.php in the template files, you will learn more about it. But it works just like any filters in WordPress…

i’ve tried adding both these to my functions.php

add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woocommerce_product_description_tab', 10 );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woocommerce_product_attributes_tab', 20 );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woocommerce_product_reviews_tab', 30 );

and

add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woocommerce_default_product_tabs' );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'woocommerce_sort_product_tabs', 99 );

both of them result in my tabs disappearing and only my product description showing.

Its a filter…so you need to treat it as such..The way you’re doing it now is like an action…two different things..

Filters have existing data in them which you need to handle..In this case you want to merge..

I am not going to write the code for you but if you do:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'custom_tabs' );

function custom_tabs( $existing_tabs ) {
var_dump( $existing_tabs );
}

You should get an idea what is already in the tabs array and you just need to merge it, append it…whichever you like.

i think im getting closed but not quite right

$prod_tabs = array(
	'description' => array(
		'title' => 'Description',
		'priority' => 10 ,
		'callback' => 'woocommerce_product_description_tab'), 

	'testtab' => array(
		'title' => 'testtab',
		'priority' => 30 ,
		'callback' => 'toc_mydata'),

	'reviews' => array(
		'title' =>'Reviews (01)',
		'priority' => 40,
		'callback' => 'comments_template'),

	'AskAQuestion' => array(
		'title' =>'Ask a Question',
		'priority' => 50,
		'callback' => 'question_template'),
		) ;

add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', $prod_tabs );

ok, i can’t figure this out. any help would be much appreciated.

Mathesonandrew, i know this wont fix the desire to do this all yourself, as i also wanted to do, but i figured for the time i took to figure this out on a site that needed to go live ASAP, it was easier to spend $29 and purchase the WooCommerce Tab Manager. I can confirm it works perfectly and gives you so many more options – you will be up and running in 5 minutes!

I would still like to see a working solution to this once figured out though, for my own curiosity!

You need something like this…

function my_tab( $tabs ) {
    $my_tab = array( 'my_tab' =>  array( 'title' => 'my tab', 'priority' => 9, 'callback' => 'my_tab_func' ) );

    return array_merge( $my_tab, $tabs );
}

function my_tab_func() {
    echo 'working!';
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', 'my_tab' );

thanks spalshingpixels, works a treat. one quick question though, how can i use that to remove the reviews tab?

Something like this should work…goes before the return statement:

unset( $tabs['reviews'] );

thanks splashing pixels, you’re a gent.

thanks slashing pixels, you’ve been an amazing help.

just thought i would show you what i’ve managed to do thanks to your help ??
