Tabbed Product Mor Info

Postby VinceS » Tue Mar 24, 2015 7:22 am

Is there any way to create a tabbed More Info page? In the body of the More Info to have tabs such as Overview, Specs, Accessories, Videos etc. that replace a portion of the screen with various content.
I've seen it done with PHP. Just wondering if there's something already in SS that could do it.

You can add it in with custom code. Also, the new themes available in version 12 sp1 have tabs on the more information page as an option.

Thanks Lauren

Hi Lauren
Just upgraded to my software. Now running ShopSite® Pro 12 sp1 r3.1
I see the new fields on the Product Info for Video, Specs etc.
I'll have to read up to see how I can integrate it into my custom template.
Where can I see examples of the tabs?

The best way would be to add some content into the text fields for a product (specifically the video field, adding a youtube embed or something, the specs field, maybe the how-to/instructions field, etc), then make sure you are using one of the themes added in the latest release (first 17 on this page: http://shopsite.com/templates/cookbook/builtintemplates.shtml). Last, for every product there are multiple layouts that you can use for the product more information page. Some have tabs, some don't. The ones that have tabs have "TAB" in the name. So you can go to Products > Edit Product Layout, and use the BB-Product-2ColumnsTabs.sst product template, or the BB-Product-FullBrowserWidthImageTabs.sst product template to get a more information product page layout with tabs on it.
