Cool Editor Tabs

179 sites No security coverage
View on drupal.org

This module enhances the editor tabs in Drupal by replacing them with icon-based buttons that appear when a toggle is clicked. It improves accessibility and visual consistency for authenticated users and offers customization options with a built-in contrast checker.

Cool Editor Tabs enhances the appearance and usability of Drupal's editor tabs (View, Edit, Translate, etc.), making them more accessible and visually consistent.

🔹 How it works:

  • A toggle button is displayed at a fixed position on the screen.
  • Clicking it reveals the editor tabs as intuitive, icon-based buttons.
  • Only authenticated users with the "Use Cool Editor Tabs" permission will see the tabs, keeping the interface clean for visitors.

🔹 Features:

  • Beautiful Heroicons v2 icons for all common tabs (Edit, Delete, Translate, Revisions, Layout, Clone and more).
  • Built-in icon support for popular contrib modules: Metatag, Pathauto, Redirect, Webform, Scheduler, Simple XML Sitemap, Content Moderation and Rabbit Hole.
  • First-letter fallback for tabs without a matching icon — no more white circles for unknown tabs.
  • Configurable colors via Administration → Configuration → User interface → Cool Editor Tabs, with a built-in real-time WCAG 2.1 contrast checker.
  • Developer API: implement hook_cool_editor_tabs_icon_alter() to provide custom icons for your own module's tabs.
  • Drupal Icon API integration — the icon pack is available to other modules.

🔹 Requirements:

  • Drupal 11.1 or higher
