Overview

About this plugin

Tabs Plugin: Responsive Elementor Tabs Widget creates responsive category tabs for WordPress posts. Visitors can switch between categories and load matching posts with AJAX without a full page refresh. Add responsive tabs to your website using the dedicated Elementor widget, native Gutenberg block, WordPress widget, or shortcode.

Use the Elementor tabs on a blog homepage, landing page, sidebar, or content area. Choose categories, customize tab and heading colors, and display posts with images in responsive layouts through a widget, shortcode, Gutenberg block, or Elementor widget.
