Change Webflow Text with Dynamic URL Parameters
Dynamically change the content of a Webflow page based on the URL parameter
Install VisualDX
Firstly, make sure you have the VisualDX script before your </body>. Checkout the Quick Start for how to do this.
Add Url Param Attribute
Copy this attribute:
Wrap the text you want to change in a Text Span and paste the attribute into the Custom Attributes Name field
Add a Value to the Url Param Attribute
Give the Custom Attribute a unique Value.
This will be the name of the URL parameter you want to display (e.g., name, id, etc.).
In this example we are adding "name".
Publish & Test
Test the functionality by navigating to your page with URL parameters.
Put "?name=Ailin" at the end of the URL that will be used to get a user to this page.
For example: https://www.visualdx.dev/docs/dynamic-url-params?name=Ailin
When a user visits the page via that link, the text span will now read as "Ailin".
https://www.visualdx.dev/docs/dynamic-url-params?name=John
When a user visits the page via that link, the text span will now read as "John".
