Great Mod. However, it doesn't work when I turn the fancy cat on. Any idea guys? I think somebody have asked about this issue before.

You absolutely CAN NOT put any content that is valuable to search engines in a tab that is not visible by default. Google has started penalizing for this. For example, say you have the upselling items in the visible tab, and the short description in a 'hidden' tab that only shows when clicked on. That short description will get penalized. Only use things like Send to Friend in the hidden tabs, that doesn't matter for SEO.

Or use a CSS tab menu as found at:

Google has indexed all our tabs and it works great. Very easy to customize...

Thanks for this - I wish I had seen it earlier as I have implimented a css / java version but taken Balinors advice and put the important details in the default visible tab.

see my example here - it really cleaned up my product pages..

I'll save this one in my to be modified section as its very clean css code and z-index seems to be the way to go for the most serach engine friendly tabbed information..

My tabs no longer work with the Shadow Box mod when there are detailed images and sounds like the same issue with Fancy Categories.

Anyone figure this out?

Default Re: Menu with Tabs for Product page

I am trying to use Tabber inside the detail product page to tab various subjects. When I try to copy the code into the detail description box, it disappears on save. I am running 4.19 and got the code from a friend that has done this successfully. Here is a sample from his site. http://www.jonathanproduct.com/product.php?productid=16187&cat=103&page=1

I am copying the code in from a note pad into the default detail description box for each product in hopes of having the tabs replace a long scrolling description.

With this mod, I can change the contents for each product to include description, ingredients, warnings, how to use etc.

Thanks for any ideas.

Regards,

Bob
