What is the recommended solution for replacing a Webflow tab link with a custom link/button?
Published on
September 22, 2023
If you want to replace a Webflow tab link with a custom link or button, there are a couple of recommended solutions you can consider:
- Use custom code:
- Create a new div or button element where you want the custom link or button to appear.
- Give the element a unique class name.
- In the Webflow Designer, go to the "Custom Code" tab in the page settings.
-
Add a
<script>tag and use JavaScript to target the class name of the custom element. - Use the JavaScript code to replace the click event of the custom element and redirect the user to the desired URL.
- Use the Webflow interactions feature:
- Select the tab link you want to replace and remove the default link.
- Create a new button element or use an existing one.
- Set the desired URL as the link for the button.
- Go to the "Interactions" panel and add a new interaction to the button.
- Choose a trigger event (e.g., click) and set the desired action to "Redirect to URL."
- Enter the URL you want the button to redirect to.
By following these solutions, you can replace a Webflow tab link with a custom link or button. Remember to test your changes to ensure they work as expected.
