Adding Product Tabs in Shopify

Product tabs make your product page look neat and organized. Instead of showing everything in a long list, tabs help you divide the content into sections. This makes it easy for readers to find the information they want without scrolling a lot.

Steps to Add Product Tabs

Step 1: Decide on Your Tabs

Think about what sections you want in your product page. For example, you might want tabs for “Features,” “How to Use,” “Reviews,” and “FAQs.”

Step 2: Adding Tabs

1. Go to theme code editor, choose product template or section.
2. Write HTML code for the tab names:

<ul class="tab-list">
  <li class="tab">Features</li>
  <li class="tab">How to Use</li>
  <li class="tab">Reviews</li>
  <li class="tab">FAQs</li>
</ul>

3. Add content in different sections using <div> elements:

<div class="tab-content">
  <div class="content-section"> <!-- Features Tab Content -->
    <!-- Your content here -->
  </div>
  <div class="content-section"> <!-- How to Use Tab Content -->
    <!-- Your content here -->
  </div>
  <div class="content-section"> <!-- Reviews Tab Content -->
    <!-- Your content here -->
  </div>
  <div class="content-section"> <!-- FAQs Tab Content -->
    <!-- Your content here -->
  </div>
</div>

Step 3: Styling the Tabs

.tab-list {
  list-style-type: none;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-around;
  background-color: #f0f0f0;
  padding: 10px 0;
  margin: 0;
}

.tab {
  cursor: pointer;
}

.content-section {
  display: none;
}

.content-section.active {
  display: block;
}

Step 4: Adding jQuery for Tab Interaction

1. Include jQuery to make the tabs work.

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script>
<script>
  $(document).ready(function() {
    $('.tab').click(function() {
      const index = $(this).index();
      $('.content-section').removeClass('active');
      $('.content-section').eq(index).addClass('active');
    });
  });
</script>

If you want to use JavaScript instead of JuQery than use below code.

const tabs = document.querySelectorAll('.tab');
const contentSections = document.querySelectorAll('.content-section');

tabs.forEach((tab, index) => {
  tab.addEventListener('click', () => {
    contentSections.forEach(content => {
      content.classList.remove('active');
    });
    contentSections[index].classList.add('active');
  });
});

Conclusion

By adding product tabs to your Shopify product page, you’re providing readers with an organized and user-friendly way to navigate through detailed information. Tabs keep your content clean, easy to digest, and enhance the overall user experience.
