How can I create a word animation like the one in the hero section where the bottom line of text changes in Webflow? I need tips, tutorials, or videos to help me achieve this. I've searched on the forum but haven't found the right solution yet. Thank you!

To create a changing text animation in the hero section (e.g., rotating words or phrases on a single line), you can use Webflow’s native interactions and animations, or combine them with simple elements for a smooth result.

1. Structure the Hero Text Properly

• Create a Text Block for your static line (e.g., “We help you”).
• Add another Text Block or a Span for the dynamic word (e.g., “grow, scale, thrive”).
• Wrap the animated part in a Div Block with overflow: hidden, so only one word is visible at a time.

2. Use Webflow Interactions (Text Swapping Method)

• Add all rotating words inside the same container, stacked vertically in a Column layout.
• Give the container a fixed height (the height of one word) and overflow: hidden.
• Inside the container, place a Text Block for each word you want to animate.
• Select each word and position them using absolute positioning, or stack them if using vertical scroll animation.

Now apply a looping interaction:

• Go to Interactions > Element Trigger > Page Load or create a Timed Animation from a Button or Page trigger.
• Use Move to shift the word container up by the height of the word at fixed intervals.
• Use Wait actions between moves and loop the animation with “Loop” enabled.
• Add an ease-in-out transition for smooth movement.

3. Use the "While Page is Scrolling" Trigger (Optional)

• This is an alternative style where words change as the user scrolls.
• Instead of time-based animation, tie the word changes to the scroll position by:
• Adding each keyword in a different section or div.
• Fading them in/out at different scroll percentage spans.

4. Example Tutorial Video + Templates

Here are tutorials you can follow:

• Web Dev For You: “Changing Text Hero Section Animation” — teaches the move animation and loop.
• YouTube: https://youtu.be/OajbVf8632Q
• Finsweet Attributes: For more advanced solutions (e.g., CMS-driven words).
• Attributes CMS Filter or CMS Slider can be tweaked to do controlled swapping.

5. Use Custom Code (Skill-Optional)

If you’re comfortable adding a lightweight script, you can insert custom JS to swap words using a setInterval. However, most use cases can be achieved with Webflow interactions alone without code.

Summary

Create a static + dynamic text structure, use a container with overflow hidden, and apply loop animations via Webflow interactions to move or fade words in and out. For reference, the Web Dev For You YouTube tutorial is highly recommended for step-by-step implementation.
