Is it possible to add different interactions to each individual collection list item in Webflow or do all of the collection list items have the same exact interaction every time?

In Webflow, it is possible to add different interactions to each individual collection list item. By default, when you apply an interaction to a collection list, it will be applied to all items within that list. However, you can easily override this and add different interactions to specific list items. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Select the collection list element on your Webflow canvas.
  2. In the right sidebar, navigate to the Interactions tab.
  3. Here, you will see a list of available interactions for the collection list. Apply the desired interaction to the list, which will be the default interaction for all items.
  4. To add different interactions to specific items, select the individual collection list item.
  5. In the right sidebar, under the States tab, you will find a list of available states for the item. By default, it will be set to None.
  6. Click on the "+" icon next to the None state, and select the state in which you want to apply a different interaction. For example, you can choose to apply a hover interaction to highlight the item when the mouse hovers over it.
  7. After selecting the state, navigate back to the Interactions tab in the right sidebar.
  8. Apply the desired interaction to the selected state. This interaction will only be visible when the item is in the specified state, and will override the default interaction set for the entire collection list.
  9. Repeat steps 4-8 for each individual item in the collection list to apply different interactions as needed.

By following these steps, you can add different interactions to each individual collection list item in Webflow. This allows you to create dynamic and engaging experiences for your website visitors.
