To connect the pagination setup in Webflow with the URL and its corresponding content, you can follow these steps:

  1. Set up your pagination component: In Webflow, you can easily add pagination to a dynamic list by dragging and dropping a pagination component onto your collection list wrapper.

  2. Configure the pagination settings: Once you've placed the pagination component, you can configure its settings. Click on the pagination component and go to the Settings panel. Here, you can set the number of items to display per page and choose the pagination type (numbered or "Load more" button).

  3. Set up the URL structure: To connect the pagination setup with the URL, you need to set up the URL structure correctly. Webflow supports URL parameters that can be used to control the content shown on a page or in a collection list. To do this, you can use the URL parameter in the collection list filter to display the correct set of items based on the page number.

  4. Create dynamic links: To make sure the pagination links update the URL and show the correct content, you can create dynamic links using the Link element. Select the pagination link element and click on the "Add Dynamic Binding" icon. Choose "Current Page URL" as the source and add the URL parameter for the page number.

  5. Enable URL routing: To ensure that the pagination links update the URL without refreshing the page, you need to enable URL routing. Go to the Project Settings in the Webflow Designer and navigate to the Hosting tab. Enable the "Clean URLs" option, which will allow Webflow to handle URL routing.

  6. Test and publish: After setting up the pagination and URL structure, you should test the functionality on the live site. Publish your website and navigate to the pagination links to see if the URL updates and the correct content is displayed.

By following these steps, you can connect the pagination setup in Webflow with the URL and its corresponding content. This allows users to navigate through different paginated pages while displaying the appropriate content based on the URL parameters.
