How can I add an image (icon) to a default button in Webflow?

Below is a guide on how to add an image (icon) to a default button in Webflow.

1. Insert the Default Button

• Drag and drop a Button component from the Add Panel onto your canvas.
• This creates a standard button that you can customize further.

2. Add the Image Element

• With the button selected, drag an Image element from the Add Panel into the button.
• The image will become a child element of the button, ensuring it appears inside the button boundaries.

3. Configure the Button Layout

• Change the button’s display to Flex via the Style Panel for easier alignment between the image and text.
• Use justify-content and align-items properties (for example, center or space-between) to ensure proper positioning of the icon relative to the text.
• Adjust the margin/padding of the image if needed to create space between the icon and the button text.

4. Set the Icon and Style

• Click on the Image element to select it and choose your desired icon source from the settings.
• Use the Style Panel to resize the icon, and if necessary, adjust the overall button appearance to align with your design.
• Preview the changes in the Designer and test the interaction to make sure the icon appears correctly on different devices and states if applicable.

Summary

You can add an icon to a default Webflow button by inserting a button element, adding an image element inside it, configuring the layout with flex settings, and then styling both the image and button to achieve the desired look and behavior.
