Multi Tab

Descripción

Multi Tab enhances the WordPress admin list tables by adding a simple but powerful feature:
open multiple selected items in new browser tabs with a single click.

The plugin works across all post types (including WooCommerce products) and is designed to be lightweight, fast, and safe.

It uses a single, consolidated script and integrates cleanly into the admin UI without affecting frontend performance.

Features

  • Works with ALL post types (posts, pages, products, custom CPTs)
  • Adds a button directly in the admin list table actions area
  • Opens selected items (checkboxes) in new tabs
  • Lightweight: loads only in admin
  • No impact on frontend performance
  • Single-file architecture (simplified and maintainable)

Important Note (Browser Limitation)

Modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, etc.) may block multiple tabs opened programmatically.

Result:
– First tab opens normally
– Remaining tabs may be blocked by popup protection

This is expected behavior and cannot be bypassed programmatically.

Workaround:
Allow popups for your domain in browser settings.
