About this plugin
Tabwise helps you organize your WordPress pages into tabs.
If your site has lots of pages, the Pages screen turns into one long list that’s hard to scroll through. Tabwise lets you group your pages into tabs, like “Services,” “Locations” or “Legal,” so you can click a tab and see only the pages you need.
It doesn’t change, move or delete your pages. It just helps you sort them.
Free forever. Every feature is included. No paid version, no upsells, no ads and no tracking.
Features
- Tabs above your list. Click a tab to see only its pages. Switching tabs is instant, with no page reload.
- All and Unassigned tabs. “All” shows everything, and “Unassigned” shows pages you have not filed yet.
- Default tab. Pin any tab as your default and it opens first whenever you visit Pages.
- Colors. A full color picker with hue, opacity, Hex, RGB and HSL, preset colors, and your own saved colors.
- Icons. Choose from 30 classic icons for each tab, such as home, settings, services and location.
- Drag and drop. Reorder tabs by dragging them, with a clear marker showing where the tab will land.
- Move pages your way. Use Bulk actions, the Tab field in Quick Edit, or drag a page onto a tab.
- Overflow. Up to five custom tabs show at once. The rest sit behind a “more tabs” button.
- Posts too, optionally. Turn tabs on for Posts in Settings. When it is off, nothing loads for posts.
- Role control. Administrators always have access. You choose which other roles can use and manage tabs.
- Works with any theme and page builder, including Elementor.
Safe by design
Tabwise only sorts. It never creates, edits, publishes, trashes or deletes your pages or posts. Deleting a tab simply moves its pages to Unassigned.
Lightweight
- Loads only on the Pages (and optionally Posts) list screen, and never on the front end of your site.
- One small script and one small stylesheet, with no jQuery, frameworks, icon fonts or external requests.
- Uses WordPress’s own taxonomy system, with no custom database tables.
