Tip

For Beginners

  • Start with a pattern if you’re new; it’s faster and gives you a visual base.
  • Use the List View to manage tabs more easily.
  • Experiment with different core blocks inside tabs for creative layouts.

Step 3: Adding Tab

  • Add content: can contain any block images, headings, buttons, videos, testimonials, etc.

Customise tabs as needed.

Step 6: Responsive Behaviour

Currently, there are no out-of-the-box settings as tabs adapt to screen size. We may have responsive controls in the future.


The Blablablocks Tabs Block combines flexibility and familiarity. You can build anything from simple to rich content, all within the WordPress block editor.
