Metro Tabs – Responsive Tabs Block

Metro Tabs adds block-editor (Gutenberg) blocks for building tabbed content. You add a Metro Tabs: Tab Group block, then add one or more Metro Tabs: Tab Item blocks inside it. Each tab has a heading (the label visitors click) and a content area where you can add any blocks—paragraphs, images, lists, etc. On the front end, visitors see a simple tab bar and panes; clicking a tab switches the visible content without reloading the page. Features Tab Group block – Container for one set of tabs. You can use multiple Tab Group blocks on the same page for different tab sets. Tab Item block – A single tab: editable heading and a content area that supports any blocks (paragraphs, headings, images, etc.). No JavaScript libraries – Uses vanilla JavaScript only; no jQuery or jQuery UI. Block API version 3 – Compatible with the current block editor (WordPress 6.3+ iframe editor). Lightweight styling – Discrete front-end styles (underline-style active tab); you can override with your theme or custom CSS. How to use In the block editor, add a Metro Tabs: Tab Group block (search for “Metro Tabs” or “Tab Group”). Inside the group, you’ll see placeholder Tab Items (e.g. “Tab 1”, “Tab 2”). Click each Metro Tabs: Tab Item block and: Edit the tab heading (the text shown on the tab). Add any blocks in the tab content area (paragraphs, images, etc.). Add or remove Tab Item blocks as needed. You can add more Tab Groups elsewhere on the page for separate tab sets. Publish or update. On the front end, the tab bar and panes are built automatically; clicking a tab switches the visible pane. No settings or configuration are required. The plugin enqueues its script and styles on the front end when the page contains tab blocks. Compatibility Requires WordPress 6.0 or higher (block editor). Requires PHP 8.0 or higher.

TailPress – Tailwind for WordPress

Tailwind CSS is a great companion to building block based sites in WordPress. Unfortunately, it’s been pretty complicated to add Tailwind CSS to WordPress since it needs to be compiled with Node.js in order to be production ready. This plugin takes care of that by adding Tailwind CSS to WordPress in one easy step (activate the plugin) and at the same time takes care of performance and caching so your site remains fast and production ready! Who It’s For This is primarily for developers and users that are familiar with Tailwind CSS and comfortable styling their site using their utility class framework. It’s also for those who have struggled to add Tailwind to their workflow without having to constantly compile their CSS every time the classes in their page content changes. How it Works Extracts classes from pages and compiles them server-side into Tailwind CSS Caches the dynamically generated CSS to avoid performance issues on the frontend of your production site. Are you affiliated with tailpress.io the theme? No, we are not! Unfortunately the same name was used for both out of coincidence, but we are not affiliated and are two different solutions. Tailpress.io is a great starting point for developing custom themes with deep integration of Tailwind. I would recommend it for any developer that wants to build a custom theme that depends heavily on Tailwind. Tailpress, this plugin, adds Tailwind support to any project as an add-on. It can be used as much or as little as you need, added to custom themes or pre-existing ones. Can this be used in production? Yes! Although the styles in the backend get generated on the fly, the CSS on the frontend gets cached for every page. Changing any classes on the page will bust the cache automatically so it’ll still stay up to date with any changes. Can this be used outside the block editor? Yes! This will work anywhere on the backend or front end of your site that uses classes to style things. Known Issues Device Preview Mode in Block Editor The non-desktop preview modes in the block editor utilize an iframe and don’t load assets properly. Therefore your Tailwind styles won’t be visible here. Page Caching If you have any page caching on your site, you’ll have to clear your cache for the best experience.
