Is there a way to enable automatic archiving for events in Webflow without using paid boosters or just hiding the events in the collection?
Yes, you can enable automatic archiving for events in Webflow without using paid boosters or just hiding the events in the collection. Here's how you can do it:
Create a new field in your events collection: Start by navigating to your collections and adding a new field called "Archived" or something similar. This field will be used to mark events as archived.
Update your collection items: Go through your existing events and mark the ones you want to archive by checking the "Archived" field. For new events, you can mark them as archived as you create them.
Modify your collection template: Open the template for your events collection and add a conditional visibility rule to hide archived events. You can do this by selecting the element that displays the event information and going to the settings panel. Add a visibility rule where you only show the element if the "Archived" field is not checked.
Publish your site: Once you have made the necessary changes, save and publish your site to make the updates live.
Now, when you mark an event as archived by checking the "Archived" field, it will no longer be visible on your live website. This way, you can effectively enable automatic archiving for events without the need for paid boosters or simply hiding the events in the collection.
Additionally, if you want to create a separate archive page to display all your archived events, you can follow these steps:
Create a new collection page: Add a new page to your site and choose the collection template you created for your events.
Modify the visibility rule: Similar to step 3 above, add a conditional visibility rule to show only archived events on this page. This can be done by checking the "Archived" field.
Design your archive page: Customize the layout and design of the archive page to match your site's aesthetics. You can add filters, sorting options, or any other elements to enhance the user experience.
Link to the archive page: Add a link to your archive page from your main events page or navigation menu so that users can easily access it.
By following these steps, you can create an automatic archiving system for events in Webflow, allowing you to hide archived events from your main events page while still keeping them easily accessible on a separate archive page.
