Heyo, so I'm experiencing an issue with the tabs function. I had a pretty solidly coded request thread but I just tried to update it and every time I click "Save Changes", I get like eight different tabs when I originally had four. I looked at the code and for some reason, it replicated the tab function after every paragraph?

Here is my request thread for a visual: peek-a-boo
 
The tabs function is extremely finicky. This is not a glitch necessarily with the site or tabs themselves, more the way you're structuring your coding. The more bbcode you attempt to insert into the coding (or if you try to put lists in your tabs), the more likely they are to duplicate and mess up.

If you like, I can go in and clean the code up for you. It is an easy fix, it just takes some extra care. The tabs have to be placed rather precisely (it is very silly).
 
The tabs you have are currently centered. Any extraneous coding on the tabs bbcode themselves will potentially cause error.

I recommend editing your code so it looks more like this:

Code:
[tabs][tab=preface]
[center]this is where your centered font would be[/center]
[/tab][/tabs]

Try separating the lines of the tabs and removing the extra coding and see if that helps.
