Problem with using tabs in dashboard

Tom1187 — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 10:53:03 GMT

Hi there.
I have two simple dashboards, that shows pretty similar charts. I would like to combine both of the dashboards into one dashboard with tabs. Each tab for each dashboard.
I know this is achievable with sideview utils, but right now I don't have the time nor the knowledge to learn how to use it. I'm trying to keep it simple. I have found this blog post: https://www.splunk.com/blog/2015/03/30/making-a-dashboard-with-tabs-and-searches-that-run-when-clicked/
I've done everything as written. It looked promising since The tabs are there, but nothing happens when I click on them. It looks like the attribute "data-elements" doesn't recognize any change I doing in it.
Has anyone ran into this problem before? Do you have other simple way to use tabs?
Thanks

The community can best help if you share the SimpleXML code that you are generating. Otherwise, we can only speculate.

Yeah, sorry about that.
Doesn't matter now. I found that the problem was in the tabs.js file.
I don't know how, but when I copied the entire file from the example app to my app, a ">" was missing from the file. Took me a while to find the problem, but after it was fixed the tabs are working perfectly.

I'm having the same issue. Where did you need to add a ">"?
TY.
