This tutorial will document the steps to creating an additional tab to the Items page that will display PDF's about the item, using the Visual Builder tool.

The storefront element to create the PDF list is "Item PDF List".

Steps

Step 1 - Initiate Visual Builder Editer

Initiate the Visual Builder editor by logging into your Ultracart account then navigating to the storefront host and clicking the "edit" button that appears at the top Left portion of the page.

Step 2 - Choose the location to add the "Item PDF List" element.

In this example the merchant chose to create an additional tab to the Item template. So they navigated to one of their items and then clicked the "add Tab" button that appears after the existing tabs in the page:

Then choose the tab and click the a"Add Element" button then when the Visual Builder Panel opens along the right side of the page, Click into the Search field and "Type Item PDF List" and select it. You'll see a panel view like this:

In this case, we only want the PDF tab to appear on the item page when the item has one or PDF's to view. So, the "Hide Ancestor If Empty" has been assigned to the PDF tab (reference here as tab-22212")

Step 3 - Assign PDF to an item in the Item Editor

Navigate to an item that you will configure with one or more PDF files. Edit the item and then scroll down the first tab of the item editor to the "Additional Product Images" section then click the "upload image" button  to upload the PDF file:
