Use Sidebar / Widgets within Tabs section

  • Is there a workaround or a future functionality to use Sidebar or Widgets within the Tab content block?

    It seems currently impossible to use Sidebar or Widget code within the content block for the Tab module.

    Hi @simonvdsteen,

    This already works well in Tailor.

    For Sidebar:
    Simply drag & drop the “Widgets” element into your tab and than select your desired widget area / sidebar from the settings of that element.

    For Widgets:
    Once enabled the option “Enable WordPress and third-party widgets?” from Settings > Tailor, you will see all the WordPress widgets along with Tailor elements in the left panel area while Tailoring a page / post and from there you will be able to simply drag & drop any widget into the Tab.

    The problem seems to be within the “Enable WordPress and third-party widgets?” option I guess. When using the WordPress Sidebar functionality this problem does not occur, so the problem seems to be within the “direct Widget loading” by Tailor perhaps?

    At first I thought it was a bug within my custom Widget, but after some further digging it’s also occuring within default Widgets like “Pages”.

    When I add a widget directly (so not trough the sidebar functionallity by WordPress), save it and then refresh the Tailor Customizer page, the Widget is no longer visible and therefor editable. Within an tab this also means you can’t click trough the different tabs at all within the customizer and as soon as I publish it again after refreshing, the widget has been dissapeared from the site.

    Basicly this means the page has to be tailor fit after one edit, else I’ll loose (widget) data.
