What is an Active Tab?

When you enter Widget Settings, you’ll notice a checkbox titled “Active Tab”. This option adds an index at the end of the URL allowing you to share a link with a particular, opened active tab that will be changed accordingly to the index specified in URL.

 

Here’s an example of the active tab id added to the link:

 

domainname.bowwe-site.com/#tab-id1234567

 

Each tab receives a specified ID and will be implemented as soon as you check the box, it’s that easy.

Congratulations!
