Tabs for web parts
Group the web parts on a page into tabs. Visitors see one tab at a time instead of scrolling through the whole page.
Custom tab names
Give each tab any name, for example “File operations” or “AD users”, so users know what a tab contains before they open it.
Default tab
When you add Virto Tab Navigation to a page, the web part creates the first tab, Default tab, so you can start placing web parts right away.
Any number of tabs
Create as many tabs as you need. The web part always keeps at least one tab.
Several web parts per tab
Put one or more web parts on each tab. Pick them from the current web part zone or from the whole page.
Adjustable tab order
Drag tabs into the order you need in the web part settings.
Several Tab Navigation web parts on a page
Each Virto Tab Navigation web part on a page keeps its own set of tabs.
Changes applied on Save
Tab changes are written to the page only when you save them, so you can prepare several changes at once.
Classic and modern pages
Use the classic web part on classic pages and the modern web part on modern pages.
SharePoint permissions
Virto Tab Navigation has no permission settings of its own. Access to the page and to the web parts on its tabs is controlled by SharePoint.

A Virto Tab Navigation web part can’t be placed on a tab of another Virto Tab Navigation web part, so tabs can’t be nested. Virto Tab Navigation doesn’t support custom styling: tabs use the built-in design.

Upgrading and uninstalling

Wed, 23 Sep 2026 12:00:00 +0000

You upgrade and uninstall Virto Tab Navigation with the setup program (SetupSE.exe or Setup.exe). On large farms, you can use the SharePoint Management Shell instead: the Deploy.ps1 script from the package only installs the product, so you upgrade and remove it with the standard SharePoint cmdlets. Run the setup program and the shell under a farm administrator account.

Upgrading

Download the new Virto.SharePoint.SE.Tabs.zip package and extract it with Extract All. Right-click SetupSE and select Run as administrator.
