Can I customize certain elements of symbols on different pages in Webflow while leaving some elements global?

Yes, in Webflow, you have the ability to customize certain elements of symbols on different pages while still keeping some elements global. This can be done by utilizing the "Overrides" feature.

Here's how you can customize certain elements of symbols on different pages in Webflow:

1. Create a symbol: First, create a symbol by grouping the elements you want to make global. To do this, select the elements, right-click, and choose "Create Symbol." This will turn the selected elements into a reusable symbol.

2. Apply the symbol to the pages: Apply the symbol to the pages where you want it to be used. To do this, simply drag and drop the symbol onto the desired page or navigate to the "Symbols" panel and drag the symbol onto the page.

3. Edit the symbol globally: To make changes that apply to all instances of the symbol across all pages, select any instance of the symbol on the page, and make the necessary edits. These changes will be reflected on all instances of the symbol.

4. Customize elements on individual pages: If you want to customize certain elements of the symbol on specific pages, you can use the Overrides feature. To do this:

• Select the symbol instance on the page you want to customize.
• In the right sidebar, under the "Overrides" tab, you can see a list of all customizable elements within the symbol.
• Click on the custom element you want to change.
• Edit the styles or content of the selected element. This will only affect the element on the specific page, leaving the rest of the symbol unaffected.

1. Update the symbol: If you make changes to the symbol itself, such as adding or removing elements, the updates will be applied to all instances of the symbol across all pages. However, any customizations made using the Overrides feature will not be affected by these updates.

By utilizing the Overrides feature, you can easily customize certain elements of symbols on different pages while still maintaining global elements.
