# How to Rename, Reorder or Remove Standard WooCommerce Product Tabs

## Customize the standard WooCommerce product tabs

The **Standard Tabs** section of [Additional Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce](https://wpfactory.com/item/product-tabs-for-woocommerce-plugin/) lets you rename, reorder or remove the three tabs WooCommerce shows on every product page: **Description**, **Additional information** and **Reviews**. This is free.

### Where to find it

Go to **WPFactory > Product Tabs** (also reachable at **WooCommerce > Settings > Product Tabs**) and open the **Standard Tabs** section.

### Options for each standard tab

At the top, **Standard product tabs** (`alg_wc_product_tabs_standard_tabs_enabled`, default `Yes`) enables the whole section. Below it, each of the three tabs has the same three settings.

| Setting | Option ID (Description tab) | Default | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Title | `alg_product_info_product_tabs_description_title` | (empty) | Sets a new tab title. Leave blank to keep the WooCommerce default. You can use shortcodes here. |
| Position | `alg_product_info_product_tabs_description_priority` | 10 | A number that sets the order of the tab. Lower numbers appear first. Type a value: this is a number field, not drag and drop. |
| Remove | `alg_product_info_product_tabs_description_disable` | No | Removes the tab from the product page for all products. |

The Additional information and Reviews tabs use the same option names with `additional_information` and `reviews` in place of `description`. Their default positions are **20** and **30**.

### Default positions at a glance

| Tab | Default position |
| --- | --- |
| Description | 10 |
| Additional information | 20 |
| Reviews | 30 |

### Shortcodes in the title

The **Title** field accepts shortcodes, so you can pull in live product data. For example, `[alg_wc_pt_product_function name="get_name"]` outputs the product name. See the full [product tabs shortcodes reference](https://wpfactory.com/docs/) for every option.

### Reset the section

Each section has a **Reset section settings** checkbox at the bottom. Tick it and save to restore that section to its defaults.

### Troubleshooting

- **A renamed tab still shows the old title:** clear any page cache after saving.
- **The Reviews tab did not disappear:** the Reviews tab only appears when reviews are enabled in **WooCommerce > Settings > Products**. Removing it here hides it when it would otherwise show.

### Get more control

Customizing the standard tabs is free. [Additional Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce](https://wpfactory.com/item/product-tabs-for-woocommerce-plugin/) Pro adds unlimited custom tabs on top of the built-in ones.
