How can I add cookies to custom modals in Webflow?

To add cookies to custom modals in Webflow, you will need to use JavaScript. By incorporating JavaScript code, you can store and retrieve cookie values to control the behavior of your modals. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:

1. Create your custom modal design in Webflow using the built-in interactions or by adding custom code.
2. Open the page settings of your Webflow project and navigate to the "Custom Code" tab.
3. In the "Footer Code" section, add a script tag to insert your JavaScript code. This script will handle the cookie creation, retrieval, and deletion. For example:

```javascript

```

4. In the script, you'll find three functions: `getCookie()`, `setCookie()`, and `deleteCookie()`. These functions allow you to interact with cookies.
5. Inside the `if` statement, you can add your code to display the custom modal, ensuring it's only shown when the cookie doesn't exist. Make sure to include a close button or a way for users to dismiss the modal.
6. After the modal is displayed, use the `setCookie()` function to create a cookie with a unique name and value.
7. To close the modal, create a function called `closeModal()` and include the code to hide the modal. Call this function when the user clicks on the close button or dismisses the modal.
8. Remember to modify the expiry time in the `setCookie()` function if you want the modal to reappear after a specific duration.
9. Preview or publish your Webflow site to check if the modal behaves as expected with the cookie functionality.

This approach will help you control the visibility of your custom modals using cookies in Webflow.
