Yes, it is possible to hide or show content, including drop-down menus, in Webflow for different device views. Webflow provides a powerful feature called "Conditional Visibility" which allows you to control how certain elements behave across different breakpoints (device views). Here's how you can hide or show content for different device views in Webflow:

  1. Select the element you want to apply conditional visibility to.
  2. In the Style panel, click on the settings icon (gear icon) next to the Display property.
  3. Choose "Add Conditional Visibility".
  4. A new panel will appear below the Display property, where you can set up the conditions for hiding or showing the element based on different device views.
  • You can select a specific device view (Desktop, Tablet, or Mobile) or even create custom media queries.
  • For example, if you want to hide the content on mobile devices, select the Mobile device view and set the condition to "Hide".
  • If you want to show the content on tablet and mobile devices but hide it on desktop, you can create separate conditions for each device view.
  • You can also set multiple conditions by clicking on the "+" button.
  1. Once you've set up the conditions, the element will be hidden or shown based on the selected device view.

Conditional Visibility in Webflow is a great way to enhance the responsiveness and usability of your website by tailoring the content to different devices. It allows you to optimize the user experience and ensure that your site looks and functions well across various screen sizes.
