Change sub-tab ordering?
My jmd_dashboard tab, “Welcome,” is being displayed last under the “Content” tab. Is there a way I can move it to first place, all the way to the left?

Re: Change sub-tab ordering?
Can you edit the plugin code where it registers with “Content” and change it to “Home”?
Home is a new TL tab, but it only displays if there is something there. If jmd_dashboard is the only sub tab, it should display by default when you click on home. I think – in theory. I’ve not tried it out yet :)

I tried changing it to “home” (assuming no caps since “content” didn’t have them) inside the jmd_dashboard plugin, but that didn’t do anything — except that “Welcome” no longer shows up under “Content.”
Would love to know how that “Home” tab can be drawn out of its cave!

Does this help?
There was a discussion on what to call the new tab, and I think “home” was settled on, but it may be coded as start or start_tab. And you have to add privileges for it to show.

Re: Change sub-tab ordering?
Yes! That helps very much. Solved my problem. :-)
Here’s the beginning of the jmd_dashboard plugin code, with the changes:
if (txpinterface == 'admin')
{
add_privs('jmd_dashboard', '1,2,3');
add_privs('tab.start','1,2,3,4,5,6');
register_tab('start', 'jmd_dashboard', 'Welcome');
register_callback('jmd_dashboard', 'jmd_dashboard');
ob_start('jmd_dashboard_tab');Note that it will call your tab “Home” even though the code says “start.” Which is OK by me but just a bit unexpected.
Here is the result, caught in the wild (modified Air theme):
That poor lonely Welcome tab… :-)

Re: Change sub-tab ordering?
You should be able to get rid of the “Welcome” by changing one line:
register_tab('start', 'jmd_dashboard');Piwik Dashboard, Google Analytics Dashboard, Minibar, Article Image Colorpicker, Admin Datepicker, Admin Google Map, Admin Colorpicker

Hm. That leaves an undefined variable error. I’d be interested to know how to remove the Welcome though.

Re: Change sub-tab ordering?
What if you keep the apostrophes but leave content blank?
register_tab(‘start’, ‘jmd_dashboard’, ‘’);

Looks like I get a narrow blank tab if I do that. :-)

Re: Change sub-tab ordering?
Are you using the Txp’s default theme?
When I tested it, the only thing that showed is the active tab indicator, which is set in the admin theme.

Ah, that’d be it then — I’m using Air, so I’ll have to take a look at that code. Thanks.
