How can I create buttons that link to the same tab section but open different tab panels in Webflow?
To create buttons that link to the same tab section but open different tab panels in Webflow, you can follow these steps:
Add Tabs element: First, add a Tabs element to your page. You can find it in the Add Panel by clicking on the Elements tab. The Tabs element will create the container for your tab sections.
Create tab panels: Within the Tabs element, create multiple tab panels. Each tab panel represents the content that will be shown when its corresponding button is clicked. Add content to each tab panel as needed.
Add Tab Links: Next, add buttons or links that will serve as the navigation for your tab panels. These buttons should link to the same tab section but have different custom attributes.
Set custom attributes: For each button, you will need to set a custom attribute that matches the ID of the corresponding tab panel. To set a custom attribute, select the button, go to the Settings Panel, click on the Attributes tab, and add a new attribute with the name "data-w-tab". Set the value of this attribute to the ID of the corresponding tab panel. Repeat this step for each button, ensuring that the custom attribute value matches the corresponding tab panel's ID.
Add interaction: To make the buttons toggle between the different tab panels, you will need to add an interaction. Select the first button, go to the Interactions Panel, and click on the "+" button to create a new interaction.
Choose trigger and action: In the interaction settings, choose the trigger for the interaction, which should be a Click trigger. Then, choose the action to be performed, which is the "Show" action under the Tabs section. Set the target of the action to the respective tab panel using the custom attribute you set earlier.
Repeat for other buttons: Repeat steps 5 and 6 for each button, setting the target tab panel based on the custom attribute value for each button.
By following these steps, you can create buttons that link to the same tab section but open different tab panels in Webflow.
