How I can echo some content based on current tab in my theme options. My tabbed theme option page has these tabs TAB1, TAB2, TAB3

I want to display a message on TAB2. The theme options page slug is /wp-admin/admin.php?page=options&tab=tab_1

I tried with 

function show_message(){

if( isset( $_GET['tab'] ) ? $_GET['tab'] : 'tab_2' ){
echo 'This message';
else{
echo 'That Message';
}
}
add_action('admin_head','show_message');

Your PHP logic is slightly off - you need to check the value of $_GET['tab']. At the moment you're saying "if $_GET['tab'] or 'tab_2'", which will always evaluate true:

if ( isset( $_GET['tab'] ) && $_GET['tab'] === 'tab_2' )

  • Thanks but it did not also help.. I also tried with this with no luck if (isset($_GET['page']) && $_GET['page'] == 'options' && isset( $_GET['tab'] ) && $_GET['tab'] === 'tab_2' ){

  • Use the hook admin_notices instead of admin_head
