Tab collections

Show products from up to three collections in one section, with tabs that let shoppers switch between them.


The Tab collections section works like a Featured collection with tabs. Add up to three collections, and shoppers click a tab to see that collection's products without leaving the page. It's a compact way to show, for example, New arrivals, Best sellers and Sale in one place.

3. Block settings

Collection block

  • Collection: The collection shown in this tab.

  • Tab label: The tab's name. Leave it blank to use the collection's title.

  • Tab image: The image shown in the tab when Show collection image is on. Leave it blank to use the collection's image.

4. Tips

  • Keep tab labels short, such as "New", "Best sellers" and "Sale", so the tabs fit on one line on mobile.

  • Set Maximum products to show to a multiple of Number of columns on desktop, for example 8 products in 4 columns, so rows are full.

  • Use the Featured collection section instead if you only need one collection.
