To filter CMS items based on recurring events by weekdays in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Set up a Collection: Start by setting up a Collection in the Webflow CMS. Create fields for the event title, event details, start date, end date, and the days of the week the event occurs on. Make sure to set the appropriate field types for each of these fields.

  2. Add CMS Items: Add CMS items for each recurring event you want to display on your website. Fill in the event details and select the appropriate dates and days of the week.

  3. Create a Collection List: Next, create a Collection List element on your webpage where you want to display the events. Link it to the Collection you created earlier.

  4. Filter the Collection List: With the Collection List selected, go to the settings panel and open the 'Filters' tab. Here, you can add a filter to show only the events that occur on a specific weekday.

  5. Set the Filter Criteria: In the filter criteria, choose the field that contains the weekday information. Depending on how you set up your CMS collection, this might be a multi-reference field, a tag field, or a text field. Select the appropriate field and set the condition to match the desired weekday.

  6. Preview and Test: Once you have set up the filter, preview your website and test the filter functionality. Ensure that the CMS items are correctly filtered and only the recurring events on the selected weekday are displayed.

By following these steps, you can easily filter CMS items based on recurring events by weekdays in Webflow.
