The hover Element Trigger in Webflow is a powerful feature that allows you to create interactive hover effects on elements. However, it's possible to encounter issues with the hover Element Trigger not working after implementing the Finsweet Load More Component. Here are a few possible reasons for this problem and potential solutions:

  1. Dependency conflict: The Finsweet Load More Component may have a dependency conflict with the hover Element Trigger. This can be caused by incompatible JavaScript libraries or conflicting code. To resolve this, you can try the following:
  • Update to the latest version of the Finsweet Load More Component as they might have fixed the issue in a newer release.
  • Review your custom code and scripts to ensure that there are no conflicts with the hover Element Trigger. Try disabling any custom code or scripts related to the Finsweet Load More Component and see if the hover Element Trigger works without them. If it does, you'll need to troubleshoot and modify your custom code to ensure compatibility.
  1. Execution order: The Finsweet Load More Component might be dynamically loading content, which could interfere with the execution order of the hover Element Trigger code. When content is loaded dynamically, it’s important to ensure that the hover Element Trigger is initialized correctly after the dynamic content is loaded. Here's what you can do:
  • Check the Finsweet Load More Component's documentation or support resources to determine if there are any specific instructions for initializing the component after content is loaded dynamically.
  • Utilize Webflow's built-in "After Page Load" option for custom code. This allows you to delay the execution of the hover Element Trigger code until after the Finsweet Load More Component has finished loading the additional content.
  1. Z-index and stacking order: Another potential issue could be related to the CSS stacking order of the elements involved. If the Finsweet Load More Component modifies the positioning or z-index of the elements, it could affect the visibility or functionality of the hover Element Trigger. Here's what you can try:
  • Inspect the affected elements using your browser's developer tools and check their styling properties, specifically the z-index and positioning CSS rules. Adjusting these properties may help resolve any conflicts.
  • Consider adding a higher z-index to the elements involved in the hover Element Trigger to make sure they remain on top of other elements that the Finsweet Load More Component may introduce.

By addressing these potential issues, you should be able to solve the problem of the hover Element Trigger not working after implementing the Finsweet Load More Component in Webflow. Remember to test your changes thoroughly to ensure that they don't introduce any new conflicts or issues.
