Are you using Webflow and wondering how to put the top button back on your website? You’ve come to the right place! In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process step by step.
Why is the top button important?
The top button, also known as the back-to-top button, is a small element that appears on a webpage when a user scrolls down. It provides a convenient way for users to quickly navigate back to the top of the page without having to manually scroll.
Now, let’s get started with adding the top button back to your Webflow website!
Step 1: Create a new element
The first step is to create a new element where you want your top button to appear. This can be anywhere on your webpage, but it’s common practice to position it in the bottom-right corner.
To create a new element in Webflow, follow these steps:
- Select the section or container where you want to add the top button.
- Click on the “+” icon in Webflow’s Designer panel.
- Select “Div Block” from the menu that appears.
Your new div block will now be created and positioned within your selected section or container.
Step 2: Style your div block
Now that you have created your div block, it’s time to style it and transform it into a functional top button. Follow these steps:
- Select your div block by clicking on it.
- Navigate to the “Styles” tab in the right sidebar.
- Apply the desired styling to your div block, such as background color, size, and position.
- Add a hover effect or any other additional styling to enhance the button’s appearance.
Your div block will now represent your top button visually, but it won’t be functional yet.
Step 3: Add interaction to the top button
To make your top button functional, you need to add an interaction that triggers the scroll back to the top of the page. Here’s how:
- Select your div block (top button).
- Navigate to the “Interactions” tab in the right sidebar.
- Click on “Add new interaction.”
- Select “Scroll” from the trigger dropdown menu.
- In the settings panel, choose “Page Top” as the Target location for scrolling.
- Adjust any additional settings or animations based on your preference.
Your top button is now ready to take users back to the top of your webpage!
Congratulations!
You have successfully put the top button back on your Webflow website. Now, when users scroll down your page, they will have a convenient way to return to the top with just one click!
