Overview #

The Product Tabs for WooCommerce Plugin lets the store owners create any number of custom tabs for product pages, globally as well as per product. You can also specify the products, categories, and tags to hide this tab from.

If – instead of a custom tab – you want to enable a custom link for all your products at once or all products separately, specify a custom link using the Product Tabs for WooCommerce.

The plugin lets you customize the description tab, additional information tab, and reviews tab too.

Using this WooCommerce plugin, you can:

• Give more details to customers about your products
• Add global product-related to all products at once
• Divide your products’ information into multiple sections for a better user experience

How do I install the Custom Tabs for WooCommerce Plugin? #

To install this plugin on your store, do the following:

• Buy and install Booster for WooCommerce. This mega-plugin has 120+ features, like the custom tab functionality. So, it is totally worth the purchase. In fact, Booster is so comprehensive that you won’t need any other WooCommerce plugin after activating it on your store.
• Go to the Booster > Products > Product Tabs

• In the plugin setting page that just got opened, select Enable for the Product Tabs.
• Click on the Save Changes

General Options #

In the General Options section, you can select your method of Content Processing. Your options are:

• Apply the_content filter

This filter will process the input as HTML content and convert the shortcodes into displayable content.

The only difference between normal processing of information and processing using this filter are – the content after the <!–more–> tag will not be displayed on the archive/category pages when you will use this option. So, it can help you keep your product listings clear, improving the shopping experience.

Read more about the the_content filter here.

• Only Process Shortcodes

The “Only Process Shortcodes” option will always render full content in the custom product tabs, whether it is a single page or a shop/category/archive page. You can add HTML content as well as shortcodes when this option is selected.

• Do nothing

This option does not process shortcodes in the input. However, HTML content is processed and converted.

Tabs – Per Product #

The Custom Product Tabs – All Products option adds the same custom product tabs to all your products (with exceptions if applicable). You must use the Custom Product Tabs – Per Product functionality of the plugin to create separate custom tabs for your products on a per-product basis.

• Select Enable Per Product Custom Product Tabs option in the Custom Product Tabs – Per Product
• To enable using the visual editor for editing per-product custom tabs, select the Use Visual Editor
• To let Yoast SEO analyze your custom tab for SEO quality, select the Add option for the Add Per Product Tabs Content to “Yoast SEO” plugin analysis.
• Enter the Default per product Custom Product Tabs Number in the given field. The plugin will add as many custom tabs input fields as you will specify here.
• Save changes before you proceed, in case you have changed the number of custom products to be added to your product pages (edit mode).

For each of your per-product custom tabs, follow these steps:

• Enter the default Title – the title of your tab to be added per product.
• Edit the Key and Priority details if needed. If you want to sort your per product custom tabs, the “priority” field is the one you can use for this.
• Set a Default Content value which will be shown when you will enable this tab but leave it blank for a product in your store.

• If you do not want to add content in your custom tab, redirect the custom to an external or internal link, enter the URL in the Default Link.
• Select the Default “Link – Open in New Window” checkbox, if you want to open this URL from the single product page in the tab.

• Hide or show this meta-box for particular products, tags, and categories if you want.

• Click on the Save Changes

Now, you will see a meta-box named the “Booster: Custom Tabs” section.
