Control which tabs buyers see, how to save your setup for reuse, and simple ways to keep tabs tidy over the life of a deal.

What tabs are
Tabs sit at the top of a Room and group related sections, like Overview, Plan, Security, or Legal. They help buyers find what they need fast.

Hide or show a tab

  1. Open the Room

  2. Hover over the tab name

  3. Open the tab menu(Three dot) and choose Hide tab

  4. To make it visible again, open the same menu and choose Show to buyers

Notes
• Hiding a tab only affects buyers. Teammates with access still see it so you can prepare content in the background
• Links you already shared to hidden content will not be accessible to buyers until the tab is shown


Reorder tabs

  1. Hover over a tab until you see the drag handle

  2. Drag and drop to change the order

  3. Put the most important tab first so buyers land on it


Rename a tab

  1. Click the tab name to rename

  2. Use short, clear names buyers will recognize, for example Security instead of Trust and Safety


Delete a tab

  1. Open the tab menu

  2. Choose Delete to remove the tab and all sections inside it

Tip: If you only need to remove a tab for buyers temporarily, prefer Hide from buyers instead of Delete


Who can edit tabs

• Room owners and internal room collaborators can add, hide, reorder, rename, duplicate, and delete tabs
• Buyers can only view tabs you show to them


Best practices


• Keep it simple. Aim for 3 to 6 tabs. Too many can feel like a maze
• Name tabs by buyer intent. Examples: Overview, Plan, Security, Legal, Pricing
• Stage content privately. Hide a tab while you work, then show it when it is ready
• Reuse structure. Save common layouts as templates and standardize across the team
• Lead with value. Make Overview or Plan the first tab so buyers see next steps immediately


Troubleshooting


Buyers say they cannot find a tab
• Check if the tab is hidden. Show it to buyers when it is ready

A tab is cluttered
• Split the content into two tabs or move long lists into subsections

I deleted a tab by mistake
• If you have a template, re-add the tab from template and paste the missing content back in
• Otherwise recreate the tab, then consider saving the structure as a template for next time
