Tab system

Topic summary

Goal: Move a long Rich Text SEO block on a Shopify page into tabs to save space, and confirm any SEO impact.

  • SEO impact: A responder states placing the content inside tabs will not harm SEO because search engines read the content regardless of its tabbed presentation. No contradictory views were raised.

  • Implementation guidance: Suggested approach is to use custom jQuery tabs. Add the tab markup/JS structure to the theme, then place the existing Rich Text content within those tabs.

  • Clarifications: No step-by-step code or theme-specific instructions were provided. “jQuery tabs” refers to a JavaScript-based tab UI pattern that toggles content visibility without removing it from the page.

  • Status: Open. Next action is to search for a jQuery tabs snippet and integrate it into the theme. Outstanding items include exact code integration and ensuring it matches the Shopify theme’s structure.

Hi,

Can someone help me with this, please?

We have added text to our website using the “Rich Text” block. This has been added for SEO purposes but takes up much of our website.

Are we able to put this in a tabbed format and will it affect SEO?

Thank you :slightly_smiling_face:

@AdamOx yes you can put it in the tabs and also it will not effect on SEO because google looks only for content.

How would i go about adding into a tabbed system please?

@AdamOx you can search for custom jquery tabs and add that code structure to your theme after that you can put your content in that tabs. thats all.
