How to use

Creates a block of vertical tabs - each tab is a separate content item. The Tab Title is shown when the tab is closed. In the open tab panel, both the Tab Title and the Tab Description and optional call-to-action link are displayed.

For the call-to-action link, select either an Internal link (ignore the Use default link text checkbox), enter an external link or select a PDF from the Media Library (only use one). Select the Open link in new window checkbox to have the link open in a new window.

There is the option to add a section heading and description above the tabs. This should be populated in the first tab item only.

Select the Show on Secondary page checkbox for all tab items when using this on pages with the Secondary page layout to center the tabs.

In sections using a Secondary page layout there are 2 columns with the open tab panel displayed in the right column. In sections using a Tertiary page layout, tabs are displayed in a single column with open tab panel under the Tab Title.

To link directly to a group of tabs, create a content link to the first tab item.
