In Webflow, there is a native way to style radio buttons without the need for custom code. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Select the radio button element: Start by adding a radio button element to your Webflow project and give it a class name for easy styling.

  2. Open the Styles tab: Once the radio button is selected, open the Styles tab located in the right-hand sidebar.

  3. Customize the appearance: Within the Styles tab, you can modify various properties to style the radio button to your liking. Here are some key options you can adjust:

  • Size: Adjust the width and height of the radio button using the Width and Height properties.
  • Border: Set the border properties to create a border around the radio button.
  • Background: Change the background color of the radio button using the Background Color property.
  • Checkmark: Modify the appearance of the checkmark inside the radio button using the Before or After pseudo-element options.
  1. Apply additional styles: In addition to the basic properties mentioned above, you can also apply other styles such as shadows, animations, transitions, or even integrate hover or focus effects to enhance the overall appearance and interactivity of the radio button.

  2. Review and publish: Once you've finished styling your radio button, take a moment to preview and ensure it looks as expected. Make any necessary adjustments until you're satisfied. Finally, publish your site to see the changes reflected live on your website.

By using the native styling options in Webflow, you can easily create visually appealing and customized radio buttons without the need for hand-coding.
