Hi @TLWebdesign,
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.

I was under the impression that this had already been resolved, but I'm now seeing the same behavior on my side as well. I'll investigate this further and work on getting a fix out as soon as possible.

The issue is related to code generation of the Custom_Admin_Tabs, where an adjustment should be made during the generation process. I'll confirm this as part of the investigation and will share details on the required changes once identified.

I'll keep you updated as soon as I have more information.

We've rolled out a fix for this issue in v6.1.6 Alpha 1.

Please note that this is an alpha release, as we are currently in the process of fully removing UIKit from the legacy JCB UI and transitioning everything to a clean Bootstrap-based interface for Joomla 6. While UIKit has been removed from all major areas, the UI refactor is still ongoing and remains in a testing phase.

We would really appreciate broader testing from different environments and use cases to help ensure stability across systems and components.

The reported issue is now resolved in this latest alpha release. Please let us know if you encounter anything further.
