Do This, Skip That.

DO

  • do Use one clear topic for each tab and its matching media asset
  • do Choose images or videos that directly support the active content
  • do Keep comma-separated tags short so they remain easy to scan
  • do Test pinned scrolling and tab clicks across common screen sizes
  • do Compress video assets to help maintain smooth page performance

DON'T

  • don't Do not overload one tab with several unrelated content topics

  • don't Do not rely on desktop scroll pinning for the mobile experience
  • don't Do not add more than five blocks because the schema limits them

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Animated Media Scrolling Accordian behave while scrolling on desktop?

From 768px upward, GSAP pins the section and maps scroll progress across the tabs, activating each tab and animating its matching media card.

Can shoppers click the tabs instead of only scrolling through them?

Yes. Desktop clicks animate the page to the selected tab's scroll position, while mobile clicks immediately activate the chosen tab.

Can each tab use either an image or an uploaded video?

Yes. Each block supports both fields, but the code renders the uploaded video first when available and falls back to the image otherwise.

How many Tab Item blocks can I add to Animated Media Scrolling Accordian?

The schema allows up to five Tab Item blocks. Each block includes an image, video, heading, comma-separated tags, and rich text content.

Are the comma-separated tags clickable storefront links?

They are rendered as anchor elements with a javascript(0) destination, so they behave as visual labels rather than navigation links.

Can I place the animated media on either side of the tabs?

Yes. The Media Layout setting offers Left and Right options that reverse the desktop content order; on mobile, both areas stack vertically.

How does the section change on mobile devices?

Below 768px, pinning is not used. Media appears above the tabs, sizes become more compact, and tapping a tab activates its matching media directly.

Can I customize the appearance of the active and inactive tabs?

Yes. Settings cover tab backgrounds, borders, title and icon colors, plus tag colors, hover states, shadows, typography, and corner radii.
