Bug Report – Custom Module Admin Tab Not Showing in CMSMS 2.2.18

Post by piercing »

I'm having an issue with custom modules in CMS Made Simple 2.2.18 where admin tabs defined in the module method are not displaying properly in the backend interface.

I've defined multiple admin tabs using: `GetAdminTabs()` and `CreateFormStart()` inside the module's `GetAdminInterface()` method. This worked as expected in previous versions of CMSMS, but after upgrading to 2.2.18, only the default tab content is displayed—no other tabs are displayed or JS events are triggered when switching tabs.

And also tried things like:
- Verify that the tab ID and name match
- Make sure there are no JavaScript conflicts in the admin template
- Reviewed the module structure against the working examples
- Tried a clean install (same result)

So can anyone explain where the problem is.

What version of CMSMS have you upgraded from?
