Top Navigation for Stacked Tabs

What You'll Create

A horizontal top navigation for your Squarespace tabbed List Section, with navigation items wrapping and centering beautifully. Each tab shows an active state with customizable styling.

The Problem It Solves

The Stacked Side Tabs technique positions navigation vertically on the side. Sometimes you need horizontal navigation above the content instead—this modification makes that possible.

Perfect For

Service category navigation, product line tabs, FAQ sections, feature showcases, pricing plan selectors

What Makes This Different

Flips the layout to move navigation above content. Navigation dots become horizontal with wrapping enabled and centered alignment. Minimum 20% width per tab ensures clean distribution across the row.
