1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 |
<?xml version="1.0"?> <config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Config:etc/system_file.xsd"> <system> <tab id="extension" translate="label" sortOrder="100" class=""> <label><![CDATA[Custom Tab]]></label> </tab> <section id="customgroup" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="1" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Custom Tab</label> <tab>extension</tab> <resource>Vendor_Extension::customgroupconfig</resource> <group id="general" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="10" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Configuration</label> <field id="enable" translate="label comment" type="select" sortOrder="10" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Enable</label> <source_model>Magento\Config\Model\Config\Source\Enabledisable</source_model> </field> </group> <include path="Vendor_Extension::system/group1.xml"/> <include path="Vendor_Extension::system/group2.xml"/> </section> </system> </config> |
Step 2: After that, we need to create a “group1.xml” file at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\adminhtml\system\
Then add the below code

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
<?xml version="1.0"?> <include xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Config:etc/system_include.xsd"> <group id="custom_1" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="15" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Custom Configuration</label> <field id="active" translate="label" type="select" sortOrder="10" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Enabled</label> <source_model>Magento\Config\Model\Config\Source\Yesno</source_model> </field> </group> </include> |
Step 3: After that, we need to create a “group2.xml” file at the below path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\adminhtml\system\
And add the code as follows

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
<?xml version="1.0"?> <include xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Config:etc/system_include.xsd"> <group id="custom_2" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="20" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Custom Configuration 1</label> <field id="active" translate="label" type="select" sortOrder="10" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1"> <label>Enabled</label> <source_model>Magento\Config\Model\Config\Source\Yesno</source_model> </field> </group> </include> |
