Transforming Card Layout into a Collection List

At a glance

A community member is having trouble getting a card layout to turn into a collection list in Webflow. They are unable to get the title to circulate properly, and it is just outputting the same one. The community members share a read-only link to the Webflow project and a video tutorial on adding CMS collections to components. After trying the steps in the video, the community member still has an issue with the grid not connecting to a source. They create a Loom video to share the problem. Eventually, the community member is able to get it working by making some additional changes to address the new updates in Webflow.

Useful resources

Hey, Team question. How do you get a card layout to turn into a collection list. Everything else I have, but when I add in the title, it's not circulating, just putting out the same one.

Might need a Loom video to share

@Michael Riga Would you mind sending a read-only link?

@Michael Riga right yeah, would you mind sharing the webflow read-only link so I can see a few things?

Let me know if you have any issues with it

Lets start with some of the foundational pieces first with this video:
https://relume.notion.site/Adding-CMS-collections-to-components-87b982f78cac406aba9e71a9974efc36?pvs=4

Then let me know if you are still running into issues. Best to have the collection list hooked up best you can as I am not able to actually connect fields to the front end via the read-only link.

That worked for the most part but at the last step in the video to get the grid to show up for some reason its not connecting to a source even though I have a source. The image was also shown in the video, Adam selected the source (Blog Posts for example) but it won't let me copy and paste the item.

I did a Loom for you as well to help: https://www.loom.com/share/9dab0e02e8624745b4a3555b66575af4?sid=c834eb2c-608f-425e-ba4b-08b87a3c2e59

Got it working. The issue was that a lot of new changes in Webflow that had to be done to make it work. I got it working though with the proper images.

okay, glad you got it sorted
