Yes, you can add a Collection List to a Symbol used on a utility page in Webflow.

  1. To add a Collection List, first ensure that you have created a Collection in your Webflow project and populated it with items.
  2. Open the Symbol that you want to add the Collection List to by double-clicking on it in the Symbols panel.
  3. Inside the Symbol, create a div block where you want the Collection List to be placed.
  4. Click on the Add Element button (+) within the div block and choose Collection List from the options.
  5. Select the Collection that you want to display in the Collection List.
  6. Customize the layout of the Collection List by adding and styling Collection Item elements within it. You can drag and drop elements into the item to display different fields from your collection.
  7. Style the Collection List and its items as desired using the Style panel.
  8. Close the Symbol editor and save your changes.

Now, whenever you add this Symbol to your utility page, the Collection List will be included and will display the items from your Collection.

Including a Collection List within a Symbol on a utility page allows for easy reuse of the same layout and content across multiple pages, with the ability to dynamically populate the Collection List based on the specific page's needs.

Note: It's important to remember that each instance of the Symbol will display the same data since it is bound to a single Collection.

Adding a Collection List to a Symbol used on a utility page in Webflow provides a convenient way to maintain consistency and efficiently update content throughout your website.
