To create a Collection list in Webflow that pulls in items based on a specific category reference, such as 'Ferrari', you can follow these steps:

  1. Add a Collection list: Start by adding a Collection list element to your Webflow project. This element will be the container for your dynamic content.

  2. Connect the Collection list to a Collection: In the settings panel for the Collection list, you need to connect it to a Collection. This is where all your items are stored. Ensure that the collection you select has a field for the category reference, like 'Category' or 'Tags'.

  3. Filter the Collection list: To pull in items with the category reference 'Ferrari', you'll need to add a filter to the Collection list. In the settings panel, click on the 'Filter' tab. Here, you can define the filtering criteria.

  • Field: Choose the field that contains the category reference, like 'Category' or 'Tags'.
  • Condition: Set the condition to match the category reference exactly. For example, if your field contains multiple categories, you can set the condition to 'Contains' or 'Contains any'.
  • Value: Enter the specific category reference you want to include, in this case, 'Ferrari'.
  1. Style the Collection list: Customize the design of your Collection list using the Webflow Designer. You can choose how the items are displayed, define the layout, add interactions, and apply custom CSS styles to make it visually appealing.

  2. Add Collection item elements: Inside the Collection list, you need to add Collection item elements. These represent the individual items that will be pulled in based on the filtering criteria.

  3. Design the Collection item: Style each Collection item element to display the relevant information from the Collection, such as the item title, description, image, or any other fields you have in your Collection.

  4. Publish and test: Once you've finished designing and setting up the Collection list, publish your Webflow project and test it to ensure that it correctly pulls in the items with the 'Ferrari' category reference.

By following these steps, you can create a Collection list in Webflow that pulls in any items using 'Ferrari' as the Category Reference.
