How can Thumbnails be added to a Webflow Slider without using custom code?
TL;DR
You can add thumbnails to a Webflow Slider without custom code by manually creating a row of linked images that act as navigation buttons. Follow these steps:
1. Structure the Slider
- Insert a Slider element into your Webflow project.
- Inside the Slider, ensure you have multiple Slides containing your main images.
2. Create a Thumbnail Navigation Section
- Below (or above) the Slider, add a Div Block to hold your thumbnails.
- Inside this Div Block, add Image elements for each thumbnail.
- Ensure the thumbnails match the corresponding slides.
3. Link Thumbnails to Slides Using Interactions
- Select a Thumbnail Image and go to the Interactions Panel.
- Set up an interaction:
- Choose Mouse Click (Tap) as a trigger.
- Under Actions, select Go to Slide and choose the corresponding slide.
- Repeat for each thumbnail, linking them to the correct slide.
4. Style the Thumbnails
- Adjust the thumbnail size using the Width and Height in the Style Panel.
- Add a current state indicator (e.g., border or opacity change) by using Webflow's Active State in the thumbnail styles.
Summary
You can add thumbnails to a Webflow Slider by manually creating a row of images and adding Click Interactions to navigate slides. This approach avoids custom code while maintaining full design control in Webflow.
