Yes, it is possible to have text instead of dots in the slider feature using Webflow. The slider component in Webflow allows you to customize the navigation dots by using the Slider Nav element. Here's how you can replace the navigation dots with text:
- Add a Slider component to your webpage by dragging and dropping it from the Components panel.
- Within the Slider component, click on the Slider Nav element.
- In the Style panel, you can customize the appearance of the navigation dots, such as their size, color, and spacing.
- By default, Webflow generates the navigation dots dynamically based on the number of slides in your slider. To replace them with text, you will need to manually create text elements as your navigation buttons.
- Remove the Slider Dot elements by selecting them and pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
- Now, create text elements using the Text Block element or any other element that allows you to add text.
- Position and style the text elements to match your desired navigation button design.
- Repeat step 6 and 7 for each slide in your slider.
- Lastly, connect the navigation buttons to their respective slides. Select a text element, go to the Interactions panel, and add an interaction that triggers the Slide action. Choose the corresponding slide you want the button to navigate to.
By following these steps, you can have text instead of dots in the slider feature using Webflow. This customization allows you to create more unique and interactive slider experiences that align with your website's design and branding.
