How to Add Tabs in Shopify Store to Manually Switch Between Different Stores?

Store Design
, ,

Topic summary

A user wants to implement manual store-switching tabs in their Shopify header, similar to Djerf Avenue’s design. The goal is to let customers choose between different store versions (e.g., “Main Store,” “International Store,” “Outlet”) without automatic geolocation redirection.

Two solutions were proposed:

  • Central landing page approach: Create a separate website with links to each store, allowing users to select their destination before entering any specific store.

  • Custom section with CSS: Use a custom Shopify section (referenced via YouTube tutorial) that accepts custom URLs and styling. This method was demonstrated with screenshots showing a styled tab navigation that links to different store URLs.

Both solutions focus on giving customers manual control over store selection. The discussion includes reference images showing the desired tab layout and a working implementation example.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a way to add tabs (similar to what Djerf Avenue does) in my Shopify store that allow customers to manually switch between different stores or versions of the store. For example, I want to have clickable tabs at the top of the page (or in the navigation menu) where users can choose between options like “Main Store,” “International Store,” or “Outlet.”

I don’t want it to be automatic (e.g., geolocation-based redirection). Instead, I want customers to have full control over which store they want to visit by selecting it themselves.

Does anyone know if there’s a specific Shopify app or a customization method to achieve this functionality?

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

@juflausinoo - do you have these different stores? you can create a central website, which has links to your stores and then share this central website link to everyone, so user visits it and goes wherever it wants

Hi @juflausinoo ,

You can use section where you would have liberty to enter any URL and custom CSS to match the style.

Request you to refer the video below for section code.

We have add this section code with custom CSS to achieve the below design.
