I have 5 headers and wanted to add a new one. I want the positioning of the new header to be 2nd in order. How do I do this?

How are headers structured/wrapped in? Can you share screenshot/recording of the elements?

Similar to the default tabs element. I want to re-arrange the steps and the corresponding content. The headers are re-arrangeable but not the content section.

I believe if you use the same variable that you are using to navigate the header to show & hide the contents, it will work.

The variable is only exposed in the workflows. This is the pre-built Tabs element.

Unfortunately not. The only hacky way I could find was by duplicating the page / tabs element and then deleting the content and copy pasting to re-order. I hope they add the ability to reorder similar to the dynamic table element.

Hello Weweb Community, still no solution on this matter?

@Joyce - Do you know if there is an answer to this? We’re looking to know how to reorder the tabs within the WeWeb built tabs element

Hi @lp_ih 👋

I think you’ll need a coded component for this. Our current Tabs element doesn’t support it natively

Hey @Joyce thanks for confirming! Is there an estimate on whether the tabs element would be improved any time soon?

Hi @gonzor_automation 👋

I’m not aware of us prioritizing this element at this time but, with WeWeb AI, you can create your own tab element with the reorder tab feature. It might require a bit of iteration but it should be achievable 🙂
