To resolve the issue of the Calendly booking scrolling problem on mobile devices using Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Identify the issue: Begin by confirming that the problem is related to the Calendly booking widget and not Webflow itself. Test the website on multiple mobile devices and browsers to ensure consistency in the problem.

  2. Check Calendly settings: Log in to your Calendly account and review the widget settings. Ensure that the widget size is set to fit within the container on your Webflow website. Adjust the widget dimensions and any other relevant settings to ensure proper display on mobile devices.

  3. Embed the Calendly widget: In Webflow, open the page where you have embedded the Calendly booking widget. Double-check that you have correctly embedded the widget code and that it is within the appropriate container element on your page.

  4. Customize CSS: Use CSS to adjust the appearance and behavior of the Calendly widget specifically for mobile devices. Create a new media query targeting mobile devices or modify an existing one. Within the media query, you can try the following options:

  • overflow: hidden: This will hide any overflow content, preventing scrolling within the widget on mobile devices. However, keep in mind that if the content of the Calendly widget exceeds the available space, it may be cut off.

  • overflow-y: auto: This will add a scrollbar to the Calendly widget, allowing users to scroll within it if necessary. This is useful if the widget content exceeds the container's height.

  • Modify other relevant CSS properties (e.g., height, width, padding) as needed to optimize the appearance and usability of the Calendly widget on mobile devices.

  1. Test and adjust: After implementing the CSS changes, thoroughly test the website on multiple mobile devices and browsers to ensure that the Calendly booking widget behaves as intended. Make further adjustments to the CSS if necessary.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the scrolling problem associated with the Calendly booking widget on mobile devices using Webflow.
