## Description

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.

 3. Activate the plugin
 4. Navigate to any post list (Posts, Pages, Products, etc.)

## FAQ

### Why does it open only one tab?

Because modern browsers block multiple programmatic tab openings.
 You need to allow
popups for your site.

### Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes, including products and any custom post type.

### Does it affect performance?

No. It loads only in admin and is extremely lightweight.
