To change the initial focus state on a tag-slider in Webflow so that it defaults to the first tag instead of the last, you can follow these steps:

  1. Select the tag-slider element: Go to your Webflow project and navigate to the page where the tag-slider is located. Select the tag-slider element by clicking on it in the Designer.

  2. Access the Settings panel: With the tag-slider element selected, find and click on the "Settings" tab in the right-hand panel of the Designer.

  3. Modify the initial focus state: Under the "Initial focus on" section, you will see a dropdown menu with the current default value (which is likely set to the last tag). Click on the dropdown menu and choose the first tag option from the list.

  4. Preview and publish: After making the change to set the initial focus state to the first tag, click the "Preview" button to see how it behaves in the live preview. If you are satisfied with the result, publish your site to make the change live on the web.

Please note that the options available in the dropdown menu may vary depending on the structure and settings of your tag-slider. If the first tag option is not available in the dropdown menu, you may need to review the structure and settings of your tag-slider to ensure it conforms to the expected format.

By updating the initial focus state of the tag-slider in Webflow to default to the first tag, you can ensure a better user experience and make it more intuitive for visitors to navigate through the available tags.
