How can I edit the display of images in my Webflow template and ensure that each image is unique to its respective project on my portfolio site without the same image appearing on every page when using a Quick stack layout?

TL;DR
  • Use a CMS Collection for projects and upload unique images.
  • Connect images in the Quick Stack to the CMS via Element Settings → Get Image from CMS.
  • Ensure the Collection List is filtered to show Current Project data.
  • Replace static images in Symbols with dynamic CMS-driven images.
  • Avoid manual image overrides in the design panel to prevent persistence across pages.

If images are repeating across pages when using a Quick Stack layout in Webflow, it's likely due to using static images instead of CMS-driven images. Here's how to ensure each project has a unique image:

1. Use a CMS Collection for Projects

  • Go to Webflow CMS and open your Projects Collection.
  • Add a new field for images (if not already created).
  • Upload unique images for each project.

2. Connect Images to the CMS in Quick Stack

  • Select the Quick Stack element in your project template.
  • Click on the image inside the Quick Stack.
  • In the Element Settings Panel (⚙️), click Get Image from CMS.
  • Choose the image field from your Projects Collection.

3. Ensure the Collection List is Filtered Properly

  • If all projects share the same image, verify that the Collection List Source is set to Current Project.
  • Click on the Collection List Wrapper → Settings Panel (⚙️).
  • Under Filters, ensure it displays Only items from Current Project.

4. Replace Any Static Images Used in Symbols

  • If you're using Symbols (e.g., a header or footer with an image), they apply globally.
  • Instead, replace any static Symbol-based images with dynamic CMS-driven images or unlink them for customization per page.

5. Check for Static Image Overrides

  • If an image was manually overridden using Webflow’s design panel, it may persist across pages.
  • Ensure the image source is from the CMS and not manually uploaded when editing templates.

Summary

To display unique images per project in a Quick Stack layout, use CMS-driven images instead of static ones, connect them properly in the Element Settings panel, and ensure the Collection List is filtered to show Current Project data.
