Hello,
I would like to have ribbon on all web part pages without use of Contextual Ribbon. Is this possible? I can't use RibbonLayoutsPage.
I also would like to activate Contextual Ribbon when user opens the page not when user5 clieck on web part, can this be done?
Great project.

Hi ibondy,
Thanks for your feedback!
Yes, it can be done. Please, consider the following post from my blog: Add ribbon tab to all site pages using Fluent Ribbon API.

Ok, thanks. This will create one Tab in Ribbon. Is there a way of creating multiple Tabs? I would prefer not to create 3 different controls, one for each Tab.

You can achieve this using
RibbonController.AddRibbonTabToPage method. Define your ribbon tabs, and then just call this method 3 times on page load, passing the previously created definitions.

RibbonController.AddRibbonTabToPage work great. That's what I was looking for. One more question. Howe can I make ribbon for ContextualWebPart be
visible when user loaded the page and did not clicked the webpart?

If you want to have a non-contextual tab, which is always visible, just use RibbonController in your webpart instead of inheriting from the ContextualWebPart class.
