<?php  
 
if(!defined('_PS_VERSION_'))
    exit;
    
class createadmintab extends Module
{
    public function __construct(){
        $this->name = 'createadmintab';
        $this->tab = 'front_office_features';
        $this->version = '1.5';
        $this->author = 'Mukesh G';
        $this->need_instance = 0;
        
        parent::__construct();
        
        $this->displayName = $this->l('Create Admin Tab Module.');
        $this->description = $this->l('Module shows how to create new admin tab then write code for module');
        $this->confirmUninstall = $this->l('Are you sure you want to delete this module ?');
    }
    
    public function install(){
            
        $parent_tab = new Tab();
        $parent_tab->name = 'New Tab';
        $parent_tab->class_name = 'AdminMainNewTab';
        $parent_tab->id_parent = 0;
        $parent_tab->module = $this->name;
        $parent_tab->add();
        if (!parent::install()
             || !$this->installModuleTab('submenu1', array((int)(Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'))=>'submenu1'), $parent_tab->id)
             || !$this->installModuleTab('submenu2', array((int)(Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'))=>'submenu2'), $parent_tab->id)
             || !$this->installModuleTab('submenu3', array((int)(Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'))=>'submenu3'), $parent_tab->id))
            return false;
        return true;
    }
    
    
    public function uninstall()
    {
        if (!parent::uninstall()
            || !$this->uninstallModuleTab('submenu1')
            || !$this->uninstallModuleTab('submenu2')
            || !$this->uninstallModuleTab('submenu3')
            || !$this->uninstallModuleTab('AdminMainNewTab'))
                return false;
        return true;
    }
    
    private function installModuleTab($tabClass, $tabName, $idTabParent)
    {
       // $idTab = Tab::getIdFromClassName($idTabParent);       
        $idTab = $idTabParent;
        $pass = true ;
        @copy(_PS_MODULE_DIR_.$this->name.'/logo.gif', _PS_IMG_DIR_.'t/'.$tabClass.'.gif');
        $tab = new Tab();
        $tab->name = $tabName;
        $tab->class_name = $tabClass;
        $tab->module = $this->name;
        $tab->id_parent = $idTab;
        $pass = $tab->save();
        return($pass);
    }
    
    private function uninstallModuleTab($tabClass)
    {
        $pass = true ;
        @unlink(_PS_IMG_DIR_.'t/'.$tabClass.'.gif');
        $idTab = Tab::getIdFromClassName($tabClass);
        if($idTab != 0)
        {
            $tab = new Tab($idTab);
            $pass = $tab->delete();
        }
        return($pass);
    }

Hi Mukesh,

 

try this: (add red text)

    public function install(){

            

        $parent_tab = new Tab();

    foreach (Language::getLanguages(true) as $lang)

    $parent_tab->name[$lang['id_lang']] = 'New Tab';

        $parent_tab->class_name = 'AdminMainNewTab';

...

 

    }

    

hope this helps,

pascal
