How can I use Webflow to create a "Learn More" button that provides additional product details when clicked?

TL;DR
  • Create a hidden details section set to Display: None and place a "Learn More" button near your product summary.
  • Use Webflow Interactions to toggle the section's visibility on button click, animating display and opacity for a smooth reveal.

You can create a "Learn More" button in Webflow that reveals extra product details using interactions and element visibility settings. Here's how to do it step-by-step.

1. Prepare Your Elements

  • Add your product content (e.g., image, title, summary description) inside a div block.
  • Below or beside the summary, add a "Learn More" button using a Button element.
  • Create another div block for detailed product info. This will be shown or hidden when the button is clicked.
  • Set this details div to Display: None initially in Styles panel (under Layout > Display).

2. Add an Interaction to the Button

  • Select the "Learn More" button.
  • Go to the Interactions panel (lightning bolt icon on the right).
  • Click + next to Element Trigger and choose Mouse Click (Tap).
  • Choose Start an Animation, then click + New Timed Animation.

3. Animate Detail Reveal

  • Name your animation (e.g., “Show Product Details”).
  • Click + Add Action, then select Display and set to Block or Flex (depending on your layout).
  • Add another action to change Opacity from 0% to 100% over 0.3s for a smooth fade-in.
  • Optionally, animate height or movement for more dynamic expansion.

4. (Optional) Add Toggle Behavior

  • To allow hiding the details again, create another animation named “Hide Product Details”.
  • Repeat the steps above in reverse: animate opacity to 0%, then change Display to “None”.
  • Use the button’s click trigger to toggle between both animations using the “Second Click” option.

5. Style for Clarity

  • Make sure the product details section visually matches your base layout.
  • Use margins, padding, and background to distinguish the expanded content if needed.

Summary

To create a "Learn More" button in Webflow, build a hidden section with extended product info, then use click interactions to toggle its visibility. Set the details div to Display: None by default, and use Webflow Interactions to fade it in when the button is clicked.
