Yes, you can create a slider on your Webflow homepage that contains 2 slides, each with 3 separate Collection Lists (e.g., blogs) per slide. However, Webflow has some limitations with CMS items inside sliders that you'll need to work around.
1. Understand Webflow CMS Limits
- Webflow CMS pages have a limit of 20 Collection Lists per page and 100 Collection items per list (depending on your plan).
- A Collection List can’t be bound to a dynamic element like a Slider component directly using native CMS logic (you can't loop a collection to create slides in a slider).
2. Use Static Slider Structure
- You’ll need to build the slider with static Slide components first.
- Inside each Slide, you manually add 3 Collection Lists and bind each to a specific blog collection or filtered set.
3. Filter Each Collection List Uniquely
- Add 3 Collection Lists in Slide 1, each:
- Bound to the same blog Collection
- Filtered to show different content, using filters like “Limit to 1 item, start at item 1 / 2 / 3,” etc.
- Repeat the same process in Slide 2, with different item limits (e.g., start at item 4 / 5 / 6).
4. Manual Layout Control
- You'll need to manually manage styling and layout inside each slide to arrange the 3 Collection Lists side-by-side or stacked as needed.
- Use Flexbox or Grid to achieve the layout you want.
5. Alternative: Combine Into One Collection List
- For better performance and easier maintenance, consider using one Collection List inside each slide, with 3 items per slide, using pagination or load-more functions (custom or via CMS logic).
Summary
You can add 2 static slides, each containing 3 uniquely-filtered Collection Lists for blogs inside a Webflow Slider. It's a manual setup, not dynamic, but it's entirely possible within Webflow’s CMS limits.
