Yes, it is possible to create a testimonial slider using Webflow CMS where clients can add their own testimonials. Here's how you can achieve this:
Set up your CMS collection: Create a new collection in Webflow CMS called "Testimonials" or any name of your choice. Add the necessary fields for the testimonials, like "Client Name", "Client Image", and "Testimonial Message".
Design your testimonial slider: In the Webflow Designer, create a new section or div where you want to display the testimonial slider. Add a Slider component to this section/div.
Connect the Slider to the CMS collection: With the Slider selected, go to the Settings panel and click on the "Connect to Collection" button. Select the "Testimonials" collection and choose the fields you want to display in the slider, such as the client's name, image, and testimonial message.
Design the slider layout: Customize the layout of the slider by adding dynamic elements. Drag and drop text fields or image elements onto the slide and bind them to the appropriate CMS fields.
Style the slider: Use the Webflow Designer to style the slider to match your website's design. Customize the font, colors, spacing, and any other design elements as desired.
Publish and test: Once you are satisfied with the design and setup, publish your website to see the testimonial slider in action. Add a few testimonials using the CMS editor in the Webflow Editor to test if the clients can add their own testimonials.
Enable client login: To ensure that clients can add their own testimonials, you need to enable client login and give them access to the CMS Editor. Go to the Project Settings in Webflow, navigate to the "Editor" tab, and enable "Client Login". Share the Editor link with your clients and provide them with detailed instructions on how to add their testimonials.
By following these steps, you can create a testimonial slider using Webflow CMS that allows clients to add their own testimonials, thus keeping your testimonials section updated with fresh content.
