Passing parameters to child tabs - why isn't my subscriber function called again?

Ionic Framework
#1

Hi, I’m stuck in trying to pass a parameter to a child page of a tab (ionic 4):

tabs.page.html

  <ion-tab label="Settings" icon="settings" href="/tabs/(settings:settings)">
    <ion-router-outlet name="settings"></ion-router-outlet>
  </ion-tab>

tabs.router.module.ts

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: 'tabs', 
    component: TabsPage,
    children: [
      ....
     { path: 'settings/:func', outlet: 'settings', component: SettingsPage },
     { path: 'settings', ...      },
   ]
   ...
];

settings.page.ts

export class SettingsPage implements OnInit ... {

  private routeSub: Subscription;
 
  constructor( private activatedRoute: ActivatedRoute) {}

  ngOnInit() {      
      console.log('Calling this without parameter. OK.');
      this.routeSub = this.activatedRoute.params.subscribe(params => {
        console.log('This is called for the first time the settings tab loads and never again.');
        if (params['func'] == 'myFunc') {
           console.log('You cant see me :-(');
        }
      })
  }

After the first ngOnInit, I navigate to another page and return from that page with:

this.router.navigateByUrl('/tabs/(settings:settings/myFunc');

I’d expect to see “You can’t see me :-(”. I am trying for some days now and hope the answer isn’t too easy. :slight_smile:

Thanks for your help.
