To make the phone numbers on your mobile site in Webflow look like they do in the designer, you can use a combination of Webflow's built-in design capabilities and custom code. Here's a step-by-step guide to achieve this:

  1. Identify the phone number elements: In the Webflow Designer, locate the phone number elements that you want to style. These can be either text elements or link elements containing the phone number.

  2. Apply the desired styles: Select the phone number element and navigate to the Styles panel. Here, you can change the font, font size, color, and any other formatting properties to match the desired look.

  3. Consider responsive design: Ensure that your phone number elements are properly styled for different screen sizes. Use the responsive design features in Webflow to adjust the styles for mobile devices specifically. This will ensure a consistent and optimized appearance across all devices.

  4. Apply hover styles (optional): If you want to add an interactive effect when users hover over the phone number, you can utilize Webflow's hover state feature. Create a hover state for the phone number element and apply different styles, such as changing the background color or underlining the number.

  5. Publish your mobile site: Once you're satisfied with the phone number styles in the Webflow Designer, publish your website to make the changes live.

  6. Customize the phone number appearance further (optional): If the default styling options in Webflow do not achieve the exact look you desire, you can utilize custom code to further customize the appearance. To do this, switch to the Code tab in the Webflow Designer and add custom CSS to target the phone number elements. You can manipulate the font, size, color, and other properties using CSS.

Remember to preview your site on different mobile devices to ensure that the phone numbers display correctly and are easily visible.

Additional Tips:

  • Use contrasting colors to make phone numbers stand out against the background.
  • Ensure that phone numbers are clickable by wrapping them in anchor (<a>) tags with the href attribute containing the phone number, along with the appropriate tel: prefix.
  • Optimize the legibility of phone numbers by using a slightly larger font size and adding padding or spacing around the numbers.
  • Test the phone numbers by clicking on them to ensure they initiate phone calls on mobile devices.

By following these steps, you can make the phone numbers on your mobile site in Webflow look like they do in the designer, creating a cohesive and visually appealing user experience.
