Custom Tabs

There will be times when you want to be able to create a new tab in the quiz settings. Luckily, we have a function in the plugin helper class to take care of this for you.

create a new settings tab

When a user clicks “Edit” on their quiz or survey, the plugin displays a “Settings” page with a variety of tabs such as “Questions”, “Emails”, etc. You can add new tabs to this page using a function in the API.

First, we add a function to the ‘plugins_loaded’ hook that will add our new tab. We will call this function ‘qsm_example_settings_tab’. Inside, we will call the global $mlwQuizMasterNext.

function qsm_example_settings_tab() {
global $mlwQuizMasterNext;
$mlwQuizMasterNext->pluginHelper->register_quiz_settings_tabs( __( "My New Tab", 'quiz-master-next' ), 'qsm_example_settings_tab_content' );
}
add_action("plugins_loaded", 'qsm_example_settings_tab');

function qsm_example_settings_tab_content() {
echo "This is my tab's content!";
}

Now, we will use the plugin helper function ‘register_quiz_settings_tabs’ to create our tab. This function has two parameters. The first parameter is the title which is the string that is displayed on the tab. The second parameter is the function to display the contents.

In our example above the “qsm_example_settings_tab_content” function displays the content when a user clicks on the “My New Tab” tab.

function add_new_addons_tab()
{
	global $mlwQuizMasterNext;
	$mlwQuizMasterNext->pluginHelper->register_addon_settings_tab(__("My Addon's Settings", 'quiz-master-next'), "my_addon_settings_tab_content");
}
add_action("plugins_loaded", 'add_new_addons_tab');
function my_addon_settings_tab_content
{
    //Your content goes here!
}
