MoreCreativeTabs
Manage creative tabs the way you want
About this Mod
This mod allows you to create and add items to custom creative tabs, using JSON files inside resource packs. It's aimed at modpack makers and even allows you to disable access to vanilla creative tabs as well as tabs from other mods
This mod is client-side only and is very small in size with no dependencies (other than the Fabric API on Fabric), so you can easily include it inside your modpack.
I recommend checking out the Amended (1.18+) resource pack for a very complete example of what this mod can do.
The configuration of this mod, as well as a couple of examples can be found on the WIKI tab at the top of the page. You can also find pre-made or example packs inside the docs, to help you get started.
Should you need any other assistance, please open a Github Issue or join my discord.
When things go wrong, and they definitely do from time to time, you can open an Issue on Github if it's a bug or suggestion, or for quicker support, you can join our discord and ask your question in the appropriate channel

MoreCreativeTabs server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

MoreCreativeTabs officially supports fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.20, 1.19.4. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with MoreCreativeTabs – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if MoreCreativeTabs consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
