How can I limit the number of thumbnails shown on a Webflow page, while still displaying all images in the lightbox when clicked?
To limit the number of thumbnails shown on a Webflow page while still displaying all images in the lightbox when clicked, you can follow these steps:
Create a CMS Collection: Start by creating a CMS Collection to store and manage your images. This will allow you to easily add, remove, and organize your images.
Add a Collection List: In the Webflow Designer, add a Collection List element to your page where you want the thumbnails to be displayed. Connect this Collection List to the CMS Collection you created in the previous step.
Set the Limit: Within the Collection List settings, you can set a limit on the number of items to be displayed. Choose the number of thumbnails you want to show initially.
Add a Lightbox: Add a Lightbox element to your page. This will be used to display all images in a full-screen view when clicked.
Link the Images: Inside each Collection List item, add an Image element and connect it to the appropriate image field from your CMS Collection. Additionally, you'll need to add a click interaction to each image that opens the Lightbox and displays the full-size image.
Configure the Lightbox: Customize the Lightbox settings to your preferences. You can choose to display captions, navigation arrows, and other options.
Test and Preview: Preview your page to ensure that the specified number of thumbnails is displayed, and that the Lightbox functionality is working correctly. Update the CMS Collection or add more images to see how the Display and Lightbox are dynamically linked.
By following these steps, you can limit the number of thumbnails shown on a Webflow page while still allowing users to view all images in a Lightbox when clicked.
