2.0 collapsible tab theme block code needed

Technical Q&A

Topic summary

A merchant using the Atlantic theme (updated for Online Store 2.0) needs a native collapsible tab theme block similar to Shopify’s Dawn, without using product tabs or third‑party apps. They prepared metafields around this feature and are disappointed it’s missing; the theme developer indicated it may come in a future update.

Key points:

  • Requirement: Dawn‑style collapsible tabs (accordion sections) as a theme block, driven by metafields.
  • Constraints: No product tab sections or apps; prefers to keep Atlantic if a code tweak is possible.
  • Status with theme vendor: Feature only planned for a future release, no timeline.

Latest development:

  • A community member offered to port the collapsible tabs from Dawn into Atlantic, estimating a 1–2 day turnaround. No code or implementation details were posted in‑thread.

Definitions for clarity:

  • Collapsible tab (accordion): UI element that expands/collapses content blocks on a page.
  • Metafields: Custom data fields in Shopify used to populate dynamic content.

Outcome: No solution shared yet; thread remains open pending either a DIY code approach or acceptance of the offered porting service.

Hi all

I use the Atlantic theme (updated for 2.0) however they didn’t include the collapsible tab theme block, only a few basic options. It is the feature I was most looking forward to and had set up all my metafields accordingly… so a bit gutted it’s not included. Have reached out to authors but they replied that will look as a future update :(. I’ve searched for a coding solution I can add myself (as comfortable doing this) but no luck so far.

Would love if anyone could assist or point me in the right direction.

To be clear, I do not want product tabs or to use apps to achieve this.

Basically I want it to function like Shopify Dawn theme collapsible tabs… so i may have to swap to this though prefer to stay with my current theme if possible, with a slight tweak.

Thank you!

The collapsible tabs could be ported from the Dawn theme. I could do that work for you. Turnaround 1-2 days.
