To create a customizable slider with a custom slider navigation in Webflow, allowing users to switch slides by hovering over the buttons, you can follow these steps:
1. Create a Slider Component: Go to the elements panel on the left-hand side and drag and drop a Slider component onto your page.
2. Customize the Slider: Within the Slider component, you can add and design your individual slides by dragging and dropping elements like images, text, or videos into each slide.
3. Add Custom Slider Navigation: To create custom slider navigation buttons, you can add elements like buttons, div blocks, or link blocks outside the Slider Component.
4. Link Slider Navigation Buttons: Add interactions to the slider navigation buttons to control the slider. You can choose from a variety of interaction triggers, but for this case, we'll use the "Hover" trigger. Select your slider navigation button element, go to the interactions panel, click on the "+" button to create a new interaction, select the "Hover" trigger, and choose the action "Affect Different Element."
5. Set Up Slide Transition on Hover: Within the interaction settings, you'll want to specify which slide to show when the button is hovered over. Under the "Affect" dropdown, select the slider component, choose the "Slider" property, and set it to change to the corresponding slide when the button is hovered over.
6. Preview and Test: Preview your slider and navigation buttons to ensure they are working as intended. Check if each button is correctly triggering its respective slide when hovered over.
7. Customize Slider Styling: Finally, you can style your slider and navigation buttons to match your desired design. Use the styling options in the Webflow Designer to adjust the colors, size, typography, position, and any other visual properties to make it look cohesive and visually appealing.
Remember to save your work regularly and publish your site to see the changes live on your website. With these steps, you should be able to create a customizable slider with a custom slider navigation in Webflow, allowing users to switch slides by hovering over the buttons.
