Advanced Product Tabs: FAQs

STEP 1

Open your theme code editor:

You can go to "Online Store" ➝ "Themes" ➝ "Edit code"

STEP 2

You need to find where the "{{product.description}}" is stored. Usually it can be in "product.liquid" or "product-template.liquid" file.

To find it please type "product" into the search bar and you will get a list of suggested files. Choose "product.liquid" or "product-template.liquid" and open it.

STEP 3

Once you find the "product.description" - you need to make one action:

Select this part "{{product.description}}". Please make sure you are selecting the curly brackets as well.

And replace with the following code:

<div class="pbc-tab-widget" data-product-id="{{ product.id }}"> <script id="pbc-description" type="text/html"> {{ product.description }} </script> </div>

After clicking "Save" button please close the code editor. That's it!

STEP 1

Open General tab, find a "Tab group format" field and select - "Based on product description"

After you will see a new field underneath - "Tag for tab header". Here you need to select what Heading(H) will be used in your product descriptions. You can select from H1 to H6.

Important! If you make the product description headings in a format different to what you set here - our app won't be able to automatically detect that and show on a website.

STEP 2

Now you need to organize the description in the correct format. Here is an example:

I opened the product and made the description in a following way:

Description - H4 - it will be a tab name

Content - Paragraph - it will be a content for a 1st tab.

Shipping - H4

Content - Paragraph - this will be a content for the 2nd tab

Specifications - H4

Content - Paragraph - this will be a content for the 3nd tab

As a result, I will have 3 tabs working based on product description.

STEP 1

Open the tab group you want to edit and navigate to the "TABS" section Here you need to open the 1st tab, click on "Tab content type" dropdown and select - "Product Description"

STEP 2

Now open the 2nd tab and select "Text" in the Tab content type dropdown.

Thats it! From this moment your tab group will automatically use unique product descriptions in combination with a static tab.
