Is it possible to create a comparison page in Webflow where users can select a CMS item from a dropdown and have the information displayed below?

Yes, it is possible to create a comparison page in Webflow where users can select a CMS item from a dropdown and have the information displayed below. Here's how you can achieve this:

1. Create a Collection

• Start by creating a Collection in Webflow. Each item in this Collection will represent one CMS item that users can select from the dropdown. For example, if you're comparing different smartphones, each item in the Collection would represent one smartphone model.

1. Design the Comparison Page

• Create a new page in your Webflow project and design it according to your requirements. Add a dropdown menu where users can select a CMS item, and a section below the dropdown where the information will be displayed dynamically based on the user's selection.

1. Add Collection List and Dynamic Fields

• Drag and drop a Collection List element onto the page, and link it to your Collection. This will display a list of all your CMS items.
• Within the Collection List, add a text link or button for each CMS item. Set the link or button text to the appropriate field from your CMS, such as the model name.
• Add a dynamic list to the section below the dropdown. This will be used to display the information of the selected CMS item.

1. Create Dropdown Interaction

• Add an Interaction to the dropdown menu element. Choose the Change interaction, and select the dynamic list as the target element.
• Set the interaction to Affect different element, and choose the dynamic list as the affected element.
• In the Action section, choose Show for the type and This element for the target.
• Finally, click on the Affect different element dropdown again and choose Only siblings with this class.

1. Design the Comparison Content

• Design the content within the dynamic list as per your requirements. You can use CMS fields to display the relevant information for each CMS item. For example, if you want to display the price of the selected smartphone, add a text element and bind it to the corresponding field from your CMS.

1. Preview and Publish

• Preview your page to see how it works. Test the dropdown functionality and ensure that the correct comparison content is displayed for each CMS item.
• Once you're satisfied with the result, publish your Webflow project to make the comparison page live on the internet.

By following these steps, you can create a comparison page in Webflow where users can select a CMS item from a dropdown and have the corresponding information displayed below.
