Block Tab

This block lets you divide your content into tabs vertically.

NOTE: This block is only available for the PRO plan. You can configure this block normally in the Theme Editor; however, you need to upgrade your plan to apply them to the front end.

What is the Tab section perfect for?

You have various options to use the Tab section for your Shopify themes:

• Display the default Product Description in the Accordion:

• Add custom Product Information tabs: see an example here.

• Specification tabs: see an example here.

• Vertical tabs: see an example here.

General Configuration

From the Shopify theme editor, click on Tabs on the sidebar to view the details of settings.

If you’re new to our Easy Content Builder, please refer to section Add App Sections and Add ECB Blocks for more details on how to create and edit a section or a block.

Create Tab metaobjects

NOTE: The Tab metaobject feature is only available for the PRO plan.

When to use Tab metaobjects

Metaobjects are handy when you want to add fully custom Tab content per product/page using a single template. That means some (or all) products/pages have unique Tab sections specific to each product/page, even though they use the same Template.

How to use Tab metaobjects

Check out the setup guide.

If you want to create a metaobject template for an entirely custom data structure such as Cooking Recipes, Ingredient Lists, Book metadata, Technical Product specifications, etc, use ECB Media and ECB Rich Text Metaobjects by following this guide.

Add other content blocks

You can add many content blocks to a section you've created. These content blocks will be displayed in different positions within the section, depending on the Desktop/Mobile Layouts you configure.
