How can I change the text in the footer of my Webflow slider based on the slide being viewed?

To change the text in the footer of your Webflow slider based on the currently viewed slide, you can use Interactions in Webflow to create this dynamic change.

​

1. Prepare Your Design

• Ensure each slide in your slider has a unique identifier. This will help in setting the interactions correctly.
• Add a text element or container to the footer section where the text should change.

​

2. Set Up Interactions

• Select the slider element in your project.
• Go to the Interactions panel on the right side of the Webflow Designer.
• Click on ‘Element Trigger’, then choose ‘Slider Change’ to create a new interaction based on the change of slides.

​

3. Create Timed Animations

• Create a new timed animation for each slide.
• For each slide, set an animation that hides all other text and shows the new text corresponding to the current slide.
• Use the ‘Display’ property to manage the visibility: Set it to ‘None’ for hidden states and ‘Block’ or ‘Flex’ for visible states as needed.

​

4. Assign the Interaction

• Assign these interactions to each respective slide so that when a slide becomes visible, the correct footer text appears.
• Ensure the ‘Loop’ option is correctly configured if your slides loop around.

​

5. Test Your Setup

• Preview your project to make sure the footer text changes correctly as you navigate through the slides.
• Check all scenarios, such as skipping slides or quickly navigating, to ensure consistent performance.

​

Summary

To dynamically change footer text based on slides in Webflow, use slider change interactions to show and hide text elements. Configure these in the Interactions panel with proper timed animations to ensure a seamless experience.
