UM2.0 Profile Tabs

Hi @pare81,

For UM 2.0 custom profile tabs there must be an additional code line inserted to $tabs array at add_custom_profile_tab function , ‘custom’ => true, . Example

function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {

	$tabs['mycustomtab'] = array(
    'name' => 'My custom tab',
    'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
    'custom' => true,
);
		
	return $tabs;
		
}

Thank you.

Good to see that detail on creating custom tabs for the profile.

Are we still stuck with ?profiletab=mycustomtab it seems trying any other name just doesn’t work. for example…

$tabs[‘certification_status’] = array(…

simply breaks. Ideas?

Thanks!

Hi @mkstebbins ,

Could you please share your code? It works for other names for sure. I must have a look at your code to see why it’s not working.

Thanks.

Sure, Thanks. I take the example code from github etc, and change what we hope are the relevant names as such. And now… it works ??

The thread on Github suggested to change *all* occurrences of “mycustomtab” but it appears that um_ actions that contain that cannot change.

/*   extend main profile tabs for certification_status */
add_filter('um_profile_tabs', 'add_custom_profile_tab', 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {
	$tabs[certification_status] = array(
		'name' => Certification Status,
		'icon' => 'um-faicon-comments',
	);
			return $tabs;
}

/* Then add content to that tab   */
add_action('um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default','um_profile_content_certification_status_default');
function um_profile_content_certification_status_default( $args ) {
	echo 'Hello Certification Status!';
}

Hi @mkstebbins,

You had some errors in code. Please try this,

`add_filter(‘um_profile_tabs’, ‘add_custom_profile_tab’, 1000 );
function add_custom_profile_tab( $tabs ) {
$tabs[‘certification_status’] = array(
‘name’ => ‘Certification Status’,
‘icon’ => ‘um-faicon-comments’,
‘custom’ => true,
);
return $tabs;
}

/* Then add content to that tab */
add_action(‘um_profile_content_certification_status_default’,’um_profile_content_certification_status_default’);
function um_profile_content_certification_status_default( $args ) {
echo ‘Hello Certification Status!’;
}’

Thank you.

Thanks @mansurahamed. That did the trick.

Key difference being that we rename the um_profile_content_mycustomtab_default action and also add the ‘custom’ => true,

Thanks for the insights.
