See every featureUse Advanced Product Tabs to organize the look and feel of your Products. Compatible with both Shopify 2.0 and older theme versions, our app works with any store setup. Moreover, our app is fully compliant with WCAG 2.0 standards. Auto-create tabs from product descriptions by splitting them at heading tags (H2, H3) - no manual setup! Create dynamic tabs/accordions using metafields for advanced flexibility.
Above the fold space is precious. Long text shouldn't displace other conversion-driving content like products, specs, and social links. The Toggle Description app allows you to manage the appearance of long text on your site by adding customizable "show more" and "show less" links to text that exceeds a maximum number of words or characters. When users click on these links the text will be shown or collapsed.
