To use conditional visibility in Webflow to show only specific project images based on the chosen category filter, follow these steps:

  1. Create categories and CMS collections: First, you need to create categories for your project images. You can do this by adding a multi-reference field in your CMS collection, where you can assign one or more categories to each project image.

  2. Add a category filter: Next, you'll need to add a category filter to your project showcase page. This can be done using dropdowns, checkboxes, or any other form element that allows users to select the category they want to filter by.

  3. Set up conditional visibility: Now that you have your categories and the category filter in place, it's time to set up the conditional visibility. Go to your project image element and open the settings panel. Look for the conditional visibility option and click on it.

  4. Create conditions: In the conditional visibility settings, you can create conditions based on the category filter selection. For example, if you have a dropdown with category options, you can set a condition where the project image will only be visible if the category matches the selected option.

  5. Repeat for all project images: Repeat the above steps for all project images that you want to show based on the category filter. Make sure to set the appropriate conditions for each image based on their assigned categories.

By following these steps, you can use conditional visibility in Webflow to show only specific project images based on the chosen category filter. This allows you to create dynamic and customizable project showcases for your website visitors.
