To create dynamic tables for each product page in the Webflow CMS to display changing nutritional information for a client that sells cakes, you can follow these steps:
1. Define your CMS Collection: Start by creating a CMS Collection in Webflow to store the data for your products. In this case, you can name it something like "Cakes."
2. Add Fields: Within the CMS Collection, add the appropriate fields to hold all the nutritional information you want to display in the tables. For example, you might have fields for "Cake Name," "Calories," "Fat," "Carbohydrates," "Protein," etc.
3. Create Template Pages: Next, create a template page for your product detail page. You can do this by duplicating an existing product page or starting from scratch. Set the template as the default for all products.
4. Design the Product Detail Page: Customize the product detail page template to match your design requirements. Choose the layout and elements you want to include, such as the cake image, description, and price.
5. Connect to CMS: Once the design is ready, you'll need to connect the template to the CMS Collection you created earlier. To do this, select the elements that will display the nutritional information (e.g., the table), and bind them to the appropriate CMS fields using the "Connect Field" feature.
6. Set Dynamic Content: Now, you can start setting up the dynamic content. Within the table element on the product detail page, add rows and columns for each nutritional data point you want to display. Bind the text or data fields within each cell to the corresponding CMS Collection fields.
7. Style the Table: Customize the styling of the table to match your website's visual aesthetics. You can adjust fonts, colors, borders, and any other visual aspects to create a table that showcases the nutritional information effectively.
8. Add Product Items in CMS: To create a new product with its unique nutritional information, go to the CMS Collection and add a new item for each cake. Fill in the fields with the specific data for each product, like cake name, calories, fat, etc.
9. Preview and Publish: Finally, preview your changes to ensure the table displays the dynamic nutritional information correctly. Once you're satisfied, publish your changes to make them live on your website.
By following these steps, you'll be able to structure the Webflow CMS to create dynamic tables for each product page, displaying changing nutritional information for your client who sells cakes.
