By SkyVergeCustom Product Tabs Lite for WooCommerce Plugin
This plugin extends WooCommerce by allowing a custom product tab to be created with any content.
This plugin extends WooCommerce to allow a custom product tab to be added to single product pages with arbitrary content. The new custom tab may contain text, html (such as embedded videos), or shortcodes, and will appear between the “Additional Information” and “Reviews” tabs.
Requires WooCommerce 3.9.4 or newer
Features
- Add a single custom tab to each product in your shop
- Insert any desired content into custom tabs to provide product specifications, shipping info, or more
- Custom tabs can accept shortcodes or HTML content – great for embedding a marketing video or inquiry form!

FAQ
This free version does not have that functionality, but you can with the premium WooCommerce Tab Manager. This allows you to add multiple tabs, share tabs, edit core tabs, or re-order tab display.
The tab heading is shown before the tab content and is the same string as the tab title. An easy way to hide this is to add the following to the bottom of your theme’s functions.php or wherever you keep custom code:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_custom_product_tabs_lite_heading', '__return_empty_string' ); Be sure that (1) your HTML is valid — try putting your tab content into a blog post draft and see how it renders. (2) Be sure any shortcodes will expand in your blog post draft as well; if they don’t work properly there, they won’t work in your custom tab.
Yep, there’s the woocommerce_custom_product_tabs_lite_title that passes in the tab title for you to change. This filter also passes in the $product and class instance if you’d like to change this conditionally.
Here’s how you can set one title for all custom tabs, regardless of what title is entered on the product page (can go in the bottom of functions.php or where you keep custom code):
function sv_change_custom_tab_title( $title ) { $title = 'Global tab title'; return $title; } add_filter( 'woocommerce_custom_product_tabs_lite_title', 'sv_change_custom_tab_title' ); Changelog
