How can I style the "current" state of the dropdown parent link in the navbar when I am on the subpage of the dropdown toggle using Webflow?
To style the "current" state of the dropdown parent link in the navbar when you are on the subpage of the dropdown toggle using Webflow, you can follow these steps:
Identify the current page: In order to apply the styling to the "current" state, you need to identify the subpage of the dropdown toggle that you are currently on. This can be done by either manually adding a class to the dropdown parent link for each subpage, or by utilizing Webflow's dynamic classes feature.
Add a class to the dropdown parent link: If you choose to manually add a class to the dropdown parent link, go to the page where the subpage resides and open the navigator panel. Locate the dropdown parent link in the navbar and select it. In the settings panel, click on the "Class" field and add the desired class name.
Style the "current" state: With the class added to the dropdown parent link, you can now style the "current" state. Select the dropdown parent link on the subpage in the Webflow designer. In the styles panel, you can customize the appearance of the link, such as changing the background color, font color, or adding any other desired styles to make it visually distinct.
Apply the styles to the "current" state: Now that you have created the styles for the "current" state, you need to apply them. With the dropdown parent link still selected, go to the interactions panel. Create a new interaction and set the trigger to "Page Load". In the actions section, use the "Add Class" action and select the class you added to the dropdown parent link earlier.
Preview and publish: Save your changes and preview the subpage to see the updated styling for the "current" state. Finally, publish your site to make the changes live.
By following these steps, you will be able to style the "current" state of the dropdown parent link in the navbar when you are on the subpage of the dropdown toggle using Webflow.
