I am running version 1.5.1 and i am trying to add another product tab right beside the description tab. I have searched previous threads and only people wanting to add it to header. There was also a tread on having a pop up for sizing, but i just want another tab, no pop up.

If anybody know if there was previous thread about this topic, can you please redirect me because i am having trouble finding any info. Any help would be appreciated.

Well if all your products will have this tab, then you can manually add it by editing the catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl file

If it is only to show on some products, then it is more in depth and would require a lot of customisation.

In this instance, you should probably request/employ an OC developer to do this for you.

I too would like to add additional tabs for all of my products. So that in between the 'Description' and 'Reviews' tabs additional tabs would be displayed, 'Specification' and 'Warranty Info'. I looked in the product.tpl file however it seemed quite oblique.

Can anyone help please?

it would require an extension/module (there may be one already available in the extension store)

each persons content would be different

You could use the product attributes for this and possibly rename the tab to item specifics

Product attributes is along the right lines, but its limited with the information allowable.

Any chance you could write a tutorial on how to do this?
