Custom Product Tabs: All Products Explained
This section of the Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce plugin allows you to create global custom tabs that will appear on all your WooCommerce products. This is a fantastic way to present consistent information across your entire product range.
Key Functionalities
- Enable Section: This toggle activates the “Custom Product Tabs: All Products” functionality.
- Custom Product Tabs Number: This displays the current number of global custom tabs you can create with the free version of the plugin. The free version likely has a limit (mentioned here as “Get Product Tabs for WooCommerce Pro to add more than one global product tab”). You can find more details and upgrade options on the pro version’s page https://wpfactory.com/item/product-tabs-for-woocommerce/
- Individual Tab Configuration: Each numbered tab allows you to define its properties.
- Title: Set the name displayed for the custom tab on the product page.
- ID: Assign a unique identifier for the tab (mostly for internal reference).
- Position: Determine the order in which the custom tabs appear relative to each other and the standard product tabs.
- Content: This is where you craft the actual content for the tab. You can use text, images, videos, or even shortcodes for dynamic content.
- Products/Categories to Hide/Show: This section provides granular control over where the custom tab appears.
You can
- Hide the Tab: Exclude specific products (by ID, SKU) or entire categories from seeing the custom tab. Use the provided options to select products or categories.
- Show the Tab: Alternatively, you can choose to only display the custom tab for specific products (by ID, SKU) or categories using the selection options.
- Advanced Options: This section might offer additional configuration options depending on the plugin’s version. Here, you might find ways to define how product/category selections work (multi-select, comma-separated lists, etc.).
- Shortcodes: Similar to the Standard Product Tabs section, you can leverage shortcodes within the “Title” and “Content” options for custom tabs.
The plugin provides the same two shortcodes
- [alg_wc_pt_product_function]: This injects functionalities related to the product. Examples were provided earlier.
- [alg_wc_pt_product_meta]: This retrieves and displays product meta values based on their custom field keys.
By effectively utilizing this section, you can create a set of informative and engaging custom tabs that enhance the product experience for your customers across your entire WooCommerce store.
