When Vitals Product Description Tabs is not the right fit
- A short description with a View More link. The app splits the description into tabs. It does not truncate it.
- Static tab content in several languages. Static tab content cannot be translated per language yet.
If your product descriptions are long, or they include large blocks of text that spread across multiple collections or items, you might consider upgrading the style of your product description to a tabbed one.
This way, you can keep your customers focused on a specific part of the product description while helping them navigate and quickly discover other vital bits of information such as:
- ingredients or technical specs
- instructions
- shipping & returns
- size chart
- Q&A’s
💡 Kindly note that your product page should have a description section for the app to properly work. The Product Description Tabs app converts your product page's description section into a tab system. If your product page doesn't have a description, the Product Description Tabs app may not appear.
There are 3 types of tabs that you can use on your product pages, usually a mix of them at the same time.
- Dynamic Tabs are used when you need different content types for each product, based on the content you already have in your product descriptions from Shopify. Learn more about dynamic tabs here.
- Static Tabs are used when you want to add the same tab with information to more products at once. Learn more about static tabs here.
- Reviews Tabs are used when you also use our Product Reviews app and show them in a separate tab. Learn more about reviews tabs here.
💡 Looking to have this app appear only on specific product pages? You can use the Advanced display rules section of the app to specify the product pages where you would like this app to appear. For more information, you can refer here: Displaying apps only on specific products using Display Rules
