Tabs code being stubborn

I'm trying to finish my guide on the WotLk 3.3 achievements, and i have organized them by
Tab --> 2 subtabs
Tab --> 2 subtabs
Tab --> 1 subtab
So, i was able to finish the first Tab, using in the end to split for MainTab #2, but once i finished that 2nd maintabs 2nd subsection, and put , the guide wouldn't make a 3rd tab, instead, this appeared at the end of it:
Once everyone has exited the cave, the achievement is gained after a moments break.
instead of making a final tab, it just added the code on the current
is there a limit to tabs? or is it just bugging?

You should post your code here in a comment so we can help you, this description is a little hard to tell what went wrong.

That or submit your guide for approval, and we will help you out in the guides section.

Defeat Forgemaster Garfrost in The Pit of Saron on Heroic Difficulty before any player gets 11 stacks of Permafrost.
First thing's first, REMOVE ALL PETS they count as players in this boss so if they reach 11 stacks your screwed off the achievement. What you want to do is nuke him down as fast as you can. Soon he throws a boulder at you, go behind it to break the LoS and let the debuff drop. Once it does, jump out of the rock again and nuke him. Go back to rock at 8, and repeat. That's really all there is to it. My group did this and we got it (It was a LvL 80 group mind you).Clear the hallway before Scourgelord Tyrannus in The Pit of Saron on Heroic Difficulty without anyone taking icicle damage on the first try.
This achievement litreally takes no skill what-so-ever, just avoidance ability. Have the tank go in first and aggro the enemies, avoid the blue circles, mind you, for those are where the icicles will land. Once you make it to the center platform in the cave, kill all enemies in the circle and then just berserk your way out of the cave. Use
Aspect of the Pack
, or any other speed boosting abilities you have, and just rush out of there as if your life depended on it..which..it kind of does..
Once everyone has exited the cave, the achievement is gained after a moments break.
is the code to the 2nd tab..

There isn't a limit to how many sub-tabs you should be able to put in.
First, I'd suggest checking to make sure the tabs name= are unique (the groups of tabs, that is).
If that's not the issue, try copy & pasting the code into another "Create a Guide" page (to avoid accidentally messing up the content you currently have) and removing all the filler content, bringing it down to just the tabs. This will help you check the code itself without becoming overwhelmed by the rest of the guide. Check to make sure the quotation marks are in place, as well as the correct bracket marks.
If I'm understanding your layout, the code should look like this at that point:
**Content**
**Content**
**Content**
**Content**
**Content**

Use \\
Aspect of the Pack\
, or any other speed boost
This line here. There was something about the \ command that was messing with the \ code.
I took it out and replaced it with just simply:
Use \
, or any other speed boost
When you use spell=ID in brackets the Wowhead BBCode will take that and list you the name of the spell and the icon for it. That way you don't need to do any fancy looking for yourself.
You can quote my post above to copy the code, but that ( and taking out an extra \ ) was the only change I made.

@Hatman
The issue with the line you removed is that icon code needs to be closed.
Use
Aspect of the Pack
, or any other speed boost
should become:
Use
Aspect of the Pack
, or any other speed boost
with the \ portion being added.

Thank you both, hat, SquireKel, with the info you both gave me i was able to fix the tab and so now exists!
i had not seen that the icon link was the one messing it up. Thank you for pointing it out and fixing it!

Very often after staring at the code for so long, we become blind to the errors that are within it. Using someone else's eyes, either by submitting for approval as hatman suggests, or asking a friend to read through it (anyone can read the content, but someone who understands BBCode is of course required to help find issues in the coding itself) can be extremely beneficial.
Since most people don't have a friend who's familiar with BBCode to ask easily, I have opened myself up to act as that person for anyone who asks - just email
wow.guide.writer@gmail.com
with a
.txt
file of the guide or whatever section seems to be acting up, and I'll be happy to look through it & email the file back with edits to the code, of course telling you what I spotted and how I fixed the errors.

Yup that's exactly right.
So MasterGaming101, if you still wanted to add your own Icons to spells that way, you would need to remember to close that bracket before moving on, or the \ wouldn't know to close because its still waiting for the \ to close.
Also, go up and re-read SquireKel's break down of what you were trying to do. When working with lots of brackets and such, its good to list them on separate lines. It really helps know what you have closed and opened while you code.

I missed all the BBCode-based fun here.
Just a note for future reference, if you're struggling with a complex bit of code like this that's difficult to discuss on the forum without pasting tons of unprocessable and unfinished code into the forum, you can link your draft. Other users won't be able to see your draft but moderators and staff can so we can take a look at things directly and give feedback via the guide comments even before it goes in for approval.
