I would like to create a site which allows me to create lists of athletes based on ranking and then possibly having a personal bio page for EACH athlete. I would also like the athlete to be able to log in and make modifications to their personal page but that sounds hard. However, I’m not really sure where to start or what the design would consist of…suggestions?
Site “must haves”:
At least 10 pages which include “top 100” (or more) rankings
Lists must be easily editable so I can modify the lists without redo-ing the entire thing
Each list item displays at least the name, location, gender, and 2 more ranking parameters
Kicker: Be able to sort these lists dynamically by state/country/gender/etc
Would like:
Click-able names to at least open a small bit of more info (pop out?); would prefer a separate bio page but that’s a lot of pages
Capability which allows an athlete to log in and update their profile with bio photo and further information.
Have the ability for an athlete to pay to have their name featured in some way
Clif notes: a lot like Rivals.com but cleaner and simpler
Any help knowing before hand if this is possible and/or worth it via Webflow would be amazing, thanks!!

that is NOT possible. What you require is a database backend to help with login credentials on other dynamic data. Webflow is mainly used to static sites or static prototypes very quickly.
What you can do at this time is create your idea on Webflow first, then export the whole site, then get a web dev to help you fill in your static site with dynamic data from a database.
There are no filters in Weblow yet so no, you can’t filter/sort a list. To make it short, Webflow is for now a static website builder, and what you describe is a dynamic website, a site with a database if yiou prefer, a site with CMS features. So your project is a good candidate for Wrodpress I guess. You’ll find on Wordpress a lot of plugins to help you manage such things… it’s not out of the box, you eed to identify the components you need. And resolve the athletes access to the site, wich is not a simple thing… WP allows for editors roles but they’ll have to deal with the backend UI. If you want the athelets to log “in front” with a super simple interface, I’m afraid this requires a bit of custom code.
Yup the site template can definitely be done in Webflow. However the features you mention would need a developer. I note you are proposing to take fees for additional benefits so maybe someone on freelancer.com could help\oblige?
I can see this being perfect for the small business sites i develop. It kills me off sometimes having to constantly write code for their little whims This will address this perfectly!
