Hi,
I’ve got a problem. Also I put the mark on “Hide empty tabs” the empty tabs are still appearing.
Example: http://thyracont-vacuum.com/products/vrcvrp-electronic-vacuum-switch/vrp-electronic-vacuum-switch-pirani/
(Accessories Tab should be hidden as this is an accessory)Thank you for your Help!
KeymasterHi,
Yes, this should be hidden. Please check the followings:
– if this tab content is absolutely empty in the product edit page, so is must not contain any space, tab or other not visible characters
– also check that Default Content, Content Header and Content Footer fields are absolutely empty on the “Accessories” tab type in the “Product Tabs” menu.A tab is hidden only if does not contain any character. It works for us without any problem.
I hope this is the cause of the problem.
Best Regards,
Peter Rath
WebshopLogicParticipantHi,
I found the problem, but fixing it leads to another problem:
I’m using WPML and wanted to translate the description of the custom tabs. For example “accessories” to “Zubehör”. As the description of the tabs isn’t shown in the string translation I added this code to my funtions.php:
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_product_tabs’, ‘woo_rename_tabs’, 98 );
function woo_rename_tabs( $tabs ) {$tabs[‘additional_information’][‘title’] = __( ‘Technical Data’ );
$tabs[‘scope’][‘title’] = __( ‘Applications’ );
$tabs[‘accessories’][‘title’] = __( ‘Accessories’ );return $tabs;
}
That way the custom tabs showed up on the string translation and I was able to translate them into german. But then the described problem with the empty tabs not hiding appeared. As I deleted this code again the tabs are hidden correctly but aren’t translated anymore.
Could you please help me either to find a way to translate the custom tab names or to fix the problem if I use my workaround?
Thank you!
