How can I select a collection page, instead of a regular page, when setting a link block in Webflow?

To link a Link Block to a Collection Page in Webflow, you must do it within a Collection List or use dynamic template routing, as static pages can’t directly link to dynamic Collection Pages.

1. Use a Collection List to Link to a Collection Page

• Add a Collection List to your page by dragging it from the Add panel.
• Bind it to a CMS Collection (e.g., Blog Posts).
• Inside the Collection List, add a Link Block.
• With the Link Block selected, go to the Settings panel.
• Under Link Settings, choose Current [Collection Name] (e.g., "Current Blog Post") from the Page dropdown.
• This will link the block to that item’s Collection Page (e.g., /blog-post/post-title).

2. Use a Button or Text Link Inside a Collection List

• Inside each Collection List Item, you can also add buttons or text links.
• Select the element, and under the Link Settings, also link to the Current [Collection Item].
• This is ideal when you want cleaner layouts or more control over the content inside the link block.

3. Can’t Link Static Element to Collection Page Outside a Collection List

• If you try to add a Link Block on a static page (not inside a Collection List), you won’t see “Current [Collection]” as a link option.
• To work around this, use a manual URL structure (e.g., link to /blog-posts/post-slug) with a slug field as a page parameter in custom scripts or redirects.
• However, this is not dynamic and won’t update if slugs or structure change.

Summary

To link a Link Block to a Collection Page, place it inside a Collection List and bind it to the Current Item. Static pages can't directly link to dynamic Collection Page items without hardcoding slugs.
