How can I set up a collection list in Webflow to only display products that are relevant to the category being viewed on my web store?
To set up a collection list in Webflow that only displays products relevant to the category being viewed on your web store, you can follow these steps:
Create a Collection: Start by creating a collection in the Webflow CMS for your products. Each collection item should contain relevant information, such as the product name, description, image, category, etc.
Set Up Categories: Create a separate collection for categories or add a category field to your product collection. Assign each product to a specific category.
Design Your Category Page: Create a page in Webflow for displaying the products within a specific category. Design the layout and structure of this page as desired.
Add a Collection List: Drag and drop a Collection List component onto your category page design where you want the products to appear.
Configure the Collection List: Select the appropriate collection from the dropdown menu in the Collection List settings. Set your desired layout for displaying the products.
Filter the Collection List: In the Collection List settings, click on the "Filter" tab. Here, you can define the filtering criteria. In this case, you want to display only the products that match the category being viewed.
- Click on the "+" button to add a new filter condition.
- Choose the category field, select "Is equal to," and then select the specific category you want to display.
- Repeat this process for each category you have.
- Save and Publish: Once you have configured the Collection List and set the desired filters, save your changes and publish your site to see the filtered collection list in action.
By following these steps, you can effectively set up a collection list in Webflow to only display products that are relevant to the category being viewed on your web store.
