How Do I Make a Scrolling Banner in Webflow?

Are you looking to create a scrolling banner for your website using Webflow? Look no further!

In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of creating a visually engaging scrolling banner that will captivate your website visitors. Let’s get started!

Step 1: Create a New Section

The first step is to create a new section in your Webflow project where you want the scrolling banner to be displayed. You can do this by clicking on the “+” button in the left panel and selecting “Section” from the dropdown menu.

Step 2: Add a Container

Next, add a container element inside the section. This will help keep your content organized and centered on the page. To add a container, simply drag and drop it from the left panel onto the section.

Step 3: Create an Image Wrapper

To display your images in the scrolling banner, you’ll need to create an image wrapper. This wrapper will hold all of your images and allow them to scroll horizontally. To do this, add a div block inside the container element.

Step 4: Style the Image Wrapper

To make the image wrapper scroll horizontally, you’ll need to apply some custom CSS styling. Select the div block that you just added and go to the “Styles” panel on the right side of the Webflow interface.

  • Add Display Property: Click on “Add” under “Display” and select “Flex”.

    This will enable flexbox layout for your image wrapper.

  • Add Flexbox Settings: Under “Flexbox”, set “Direction” to horizontal, “Wrap” to nowrap, and “Overflow” to auto. This will make the images inside the wrapper scroll horizontally.

Step 5: Add Images to the Wrapper

Now it’s time to add your images to the image wrapper. You can do this by dragging and dropping image elements from the left panel onto the image wrapper. Make sure to resize and position your images as desired.

Step 6: Preview and Publish

Once you’ve added all of your images, it’s time to preview your scrolling banner. You can do this by clicking on the eye icon at the top of the Webflow interface. If you’re happy with how it looks, go ahead and publish your website for everyone to see!

Conclusion

Congratulations! You’ve successfully created a scrolling banner in Webflow.

By following these steps and applying some custom CSS styling, you can create visually engaging banners that will impress your website visitors. Experiment with different images and styles to make your scrolling banner truly unique!
