Tab enhances the WordPress admin list tables by adding a simple but powerful feature:\nopen multiple selected items in new browser tabs with a single click.<\/p>\n\n<p>The plugin works across all post types (including WooCommerce products) and is designed to be lightweight, fast, and safe.<\/p>\n\n<p>It uses a single, consolidated script and integrates cleanly into the admin UI without affecting frontend performance.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Features<\/h3>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Works with ALL post types (posts, pages, products, custom CPTs)<\/li>\n<li>Adds a button directly in the admin list table actions area<\/li>\n<li>Opens selected items (checkboxes) in new tabs<\/li>\n<li>Lightweight: loads only in admin<\/li>\n<li>No impact on frontend performance<\/li>\n<li>Single-file architecture (simplified and maintainable)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3>Important Note (Browser Limitation)<\/h3>\n\n<p>Modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, etc.) may block multiple tabs opened programmatically.<\/p>\n\n<p>Result:\n- First tab opens normally\n- Remaining tabs may be blocked by popup protection<\/p>\n\n<p>This is expected behavior and cannot be bypassed programmatically.<\/p>\n\n<p>Workaround:\nAllow popups for your domain in browser settings.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Download the plugin<\/li>\n<li>Upload to <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Activate the
