Is it possible to change the amount of items displayed in a Webflow CMS collection based on the device size?
Yes, it is possible to change the amount of items displayed in a Webflow CMS collection based on the device size. This can be achieved by using conditional visibility settings and custom CSS.
Here are the steps to accomplish this:
-
Create a CMS collection: Start by creating a new CMS collection or editing an existing one in the Webflow Designer.
-
Add a new dynamic list: Drag and drop a dynamic list element onto the page where you want to display the collection items.
-
Configure the dynamic list: In the dynamic list settings panel, select the CMS collection you want to display. Set the layout of the dynamic list to determine how the items should be displayed.
-
Set the visibility settings: Click on the dynamic list element and navigate to the "Visibility" settings in the right panel. Here, you can set different visibility settings based on the device size.
-
Add custom CSS: To change the amount of items displayed based on the device size, you will need to add custom CSS code. Click on the "+" button next to "Class" in the Styles panel and create a new class for your dynamic list.
-
Write custom CSS: In the custom CSS code, you can use media queries to target specific device sizes and set the desired number of items to display. For example:
@media (max-width: 767px) { .my-dynamic-list { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(1, 1fr); }}@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 991px) { .my-dynamic-list { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr); }}@media (min-width: 992px) { .my-dynamic-list { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr); }}
In the above example, the dynamic list will display one item per row on devices with a maximum width of 767px, two items per row on devices with a width between 768px and 991px, and three items per row on devices with a minimum width of 992px.
- Apply the custom CSS class: Go back to the dynamic list element and add the custom CSS class you created to it.
By following these steps, you can change the amount of items displayed in a Webflow CMS collection based on the device size, providing a responsive and optimized user experience.
