Set it up once, and your whole catalog follows

The free ShelfTabs plugin gives every product its own tabs. Pro takes the per-product work away.

Automatic tabs by category

Pick categories, tags or all products. The tab shows on every match, including products you add later. Subcategories are included.

Merge tags

Type {{sku}}, {{weight}} or {{attribute:size}} into a shared tab, and each product page shows its own value.

Switch without retyping

Using a different tab plugin? Email support@shelftabs.com and tell us which one. We'll look at adding an importer for it.

Questions

Do I need the free plugin?

Yes. ShelfTabs Pro adds features on top of the free ShelfTabs plugin, so install that first. How to install it.

Will the tabs match my theme?

ShelfTabs adds tabs through WooCommerce's own product tabs, so they use your theme's existing tab style. There's nothing extra to design.

I use Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce. What happens to my tabs?

ShelfTabs imports them, including saved tabs, in batches so large stores don't time out. Nothing in the old plugin is changed or deleted, so you can switch back any time. Step-by-step guide.

I use a different tab plugin. Can I switch?

The one-click import is for Custom Product Tabs for WooCommerce today. Email support@shelftabs.com with the plugin you use, and we'll look at adding an importer for it.

What if a tab is added by hand and also matches a category?

It shows once. Pro skips any saved tab the product already has.

How do I activate Pro?

After checkout you get an email with the download and your license key. Upload the plugin in WordPress, activate it, and paste the key when it asks.
