Tabs module

Tabs modules provide a compact display of many related assets. A tab module contains a title, description, and individual tabs. Each tab typically contains modules, each with its own title, description, and assets.

For a wire frame example of what this content type can look like on your site, see Tabs module design,

This topic describes how to create a shared tabs module that you can use in multiple assets. If you want to create a one-off tabs module, see Creating a one-off module.

To create a tab module:

In the header, click add.
From the Create list, select Tabs Module.
Using the following table as a reference, complete the fields as needed.
