Where can I change the text link for each instance of a symbol in Webflow without changing it for all instances?
To change the text link for each instance of a symbol in Webflow without changing it for all instances, you can follow these steps:
Open the symbol: Go to your Webflow project and navigate to the page where the symbol is located. Double-click on the symbol component to open it in the symbol editor.
Select the text element: In the symbol editor, locate the text element that you want to change. You can do this by clicking on the element or by using the Navigator panel to find it.
Unlink the text: With the text element selected, go to the Styles panel on the right-hand side of the Webflow interface. In the Text section, you will see a link icon next to the text field. Click on the link icon to unlink the text from the symbol. This action will break the connection between the symbol and its instances.
Edit the text: Once you have unlinked the text, you can now edit it freely. Double-click on the text element and make the desired changes. This text change will only affect the symbol instance you are currently editing.
Update the symbol instance: After making the text changes, exit the symbol editor by clicking outside the editor or by selecting a different element on the canvas. You will see that the text link in only the selected symbol instance has been changed without affecting the other instances of the symbol.
By following these steps, you can change the text link for each instance of a symbol in Webflow without changing it for all instances.
