Yes, there is a way to limit the number of collection items on a row in Webflow beyond setting a fixed pixel to the container. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Create your Collection List: Start by adding a Collection List element to your page. This will be the container for your collection items.

  2. Add a Div Block: Inside the Collection List element, add a Div Block element. This will serve as the wrapper for each collection item.

  3. Set the Div Block to Display Inline: Select the Div Block and go to the Styles panel. Set the display property to inline. This will ensure that the Div Blocks align horizontally next to each other.

  4. Set the Width of the Div Block: Set the width of the Div Block element to a percentage value that will determine the number of items on each row. For example, if you want to display three items per row, set the width to 33.33%. Similarly, if you want to display four items per row, set the width to 25%.

  5. Adjust the Margin: If necessary, you can adjust the margin of the Div Block to create some space between each item. Select the Div Block, go to the Styles panel, and add a margin.

  6. Add Collection Fields: Use the Collection Fields tool to populate the content of each item within the Div Block. This could include text, images, or any other fields you have in your collection.

  7. Style the Collection Items: Customize the styling of the individual collection items as desired. You can add background colors, borders, or any other styling options to make them visually appealing.

By following these steps, you can control the number of collection items displayed on each row in Webflow beyond setting a fixed pixel to the container. This approach allows for a more flexible and responsive design.
