How can I create a system like Spotify's latest update on Mac OS using CMS in Webflow where clicking on an item in a list reveals its content in a fixed div and hiding the content of other items when a new item is clicked?
To create a system like Spotify's latest update on Mac OS using CMS in Webflow where clicking on an item in a list reveals its content in a fixed div and hides the content of other items when a new item is clicked, you can follow these steps:
Set up your CMS collection: Start by creating a CMS collection in Webflow to store the content for each item in the list. Create the necessary fields to store the title, description, and any other relevant information for each item.
Create the list: Add a dynamic list to your web page and connect it to your CMS collection. Customize the design of your list as per your requirements.
Add the interaction to the list items: Select each item in the dynamic list, and add an interaction to it. Choose the trigger event as "Click" and the action as "Show/Hide" for the fixed div that will display the content of the clicked item. Make sure you set the target of the interaction to the relevant fixed div.
Create an initial state for the fixed div: Set the initial state of the fixed div to be hidden. This ensures that when the page loads, none of the item contents are displayed.
Set up the interaction for hiding/showing content: For each dynamic item, add a custom interaction to hide the content of all other items when a new item is clicked. You can achieve this by linking the click interaction of each item to an action that hides all other fixed divs, except for the one associated with the clicked item.
Add CMS content to fixed div: Inside the fixed div, add dynamic text elements and bind them to the appropriate CMS fields. This will populate the fixed div with the content of the clicked item each time a new item is clicked.
By following these steps, you should be able to create a system similar to Spotify's latest update on Mac OS, where clicking on an item in a list reveals its content in a fixed div and hides the content of other items when a new item is clicked.
