Plugin Information

Smart Tabber Widget is a WordPress plugin with main widget that can turn multiple widgets into a single widget with tabs. To do this, plugin registers Widget Placeholders (essentially inactive sidebar areas), and when you add Tabber Widget, select Placeholder to use, set up transitions, animations and styling and you will get an end result single widget containing as tabs individual widgets from Placeholder.

Plugin comes with set of default styles, and it also features simple style builder allowing you to adjust colors for default widgets and save for later use. With future versions, you can expect more default styles.

Important

Every theme has different way of displaying and styling widgets and sidebars. Because of that, there is no way to make any universal widget like this one fit with every theme. After you set up the plugin and widget, you will need to adjust the styling to fit your theme. This goes for both default styles plugin has for tabber widget, and for the styles built with Style Builder. Best way to proceed in such case is to build widget styling from scratch, and that is explained in the documentation for the plugin.

I will be happy to provide some help with common styling issues that may occur with different themes with plugins included styles (via the official support forum: www.millan.rs/forums), but I can’t build custom styling for you from scratch.
