Default Make "Specifications" the Default Tab

Does anyone know how I might go about making "Specifications" the default tab that opens on a product page? I always write my descriptions in the brief field and sell products that have lots of specs.

It would be nice if they were easily visible, especially because I don't put anything in the default description field.

Ben,
I'm sure this could be accomplished by creating a custom module, or adding on to your existing custom module. You would be able to use the move templates in lists function and adjust the order.

Hi.
Find the defineTabs() function in classes/XLite/View/Product/Details/Customer/Page/APage.php and swap the following lines of code
Code:
$this->defineDescriptionTab($list); $this->defineSpecificationTab($list);
That will do the trick.

But of course, I recommend you to create a module that would override the defineTabs() function with your own modified code, otherwise your change will be overwritten during an upgrade.
For more info on how to create a module check out developer docs
