How can I set up a dynamic list with a tab element to display products from a collection in Webflow?
To set up a dynamic list with a tab element to display products from a collection in Webflow, you’ll need to follow these steps:
Create a Collection: Start by creating a collection in Webflow to store your products. Go to the Collections tab in the Designer, click on the "+ New Collection" button, and define the fields for your products, such as name, description, price, and image.
Design the Product Display: Design the layout for displaying the products on your page. This could be done by using a grid or any other layout element. Add text elements to display the product name, description, and price, and an image element to show the product image.
Add a Tab Element: In the Webflow Designer, drag and drop a Tab Element onto your page. Customize the tabs by adding labels and styling them according to your design.
Create a Dynamic List: Inside each tab pane, add a Dynamic List element by dragging and dropping it. Bind the Dynamic List to your product collection by selecting the appropriate collection from the dropdown.
Design the Dynamic Item: Within the Dynamic List, design the layout for displaying an individual product item. Drag and drop the necessary elements (text, image, etc.) and connect them to the appropriate fields from your product collection.
Filter the Dynamic List: With the Dynamic List selected, go to the Settings tab and configure the filters to display the specific products you want for each tab. For example, if you have different product categories as tabs, you can filter the list to only display products with a matching category.
Style the Product Display: Apply your desired styles to the product display, including typography, colors, and spacing. You can also add interactions or animations to enhance the user experience.
Publish and Preview: Once everything is set up, publish your site to see the dynamic list with the tab element in action. Use the preview mode to test the functionality and ensure that the products display correctly based on the tab selection.
By following these steps, you can effectively set up a dynamic list with a tab element to display products from a collection in Webflow.
