Yes, there is a workaround for the white lining around the edges of a blur effect on a landing page when hovering over columns in Webflow. Here's how you can achieve a clean and smooth blur effect:

  1. Use a parent container: Wrap your columns in a parent container to keep your layout organized and make targeting elements easier.

  2. Add a div block inside the columns: Insert a div block inside each column where you want to apply the blur effect. This will serve as the container for the content and will help isolate the blur effect.

  3. Apply the blur effect: Select the div block that you inserted and go to the Styles panel. Under the Effects section, you will find the Blur option. Set the desired amount of blurring to apply to the div block.

  4. Adjust the stacking order: To avoid the white lining issue, you need to adjust the z-index property of the div block with the blur effect. Select the div block, go to the Styles panel, and under the Positioning section, set a higher z-index value. This will ensure that the div block is stacked above any other elements, preventing the white lining from appearing.

  5. Fine-tune the settings: Experiment with different blur amounts, z-index values, and other settings to achieve the desired effect. You can also customize the transition, opacity, and other properties to enhance the hover effect further.

By following these steps, you can create a blur effect on your landing page columns without the white lining issue commonly associated with blur effects.
