I am trying to follow the video for “How to Click to Show/Hide Text”, but right off the bat, I don’t have the same options. When I create a text block inside of a div block and then try to set the “interactions”, I don’t have any options to do so. When I go to the settings, I have, in this order, these things:
ID: (which is set to “for in-page linking” - NO idea why it says that…and I can’t change it
Tag (DIV) (but I have the same problem if I go to the text)
Views
Custom Attributes - if I click the “+” there, “data-custom” appears in both boxes and cannot be changed.
That’s it. In the tutorial, there is a whole page full of stuff you can change. Not on my screen
Okay so now I’m following the steps in the video (I’ve done it 3 times now) and nothing is hiding. For review, here is what I have done:
created a text element and given it a class “hidden text block”
created the button and it’s class is “button” “show hide”
created an interaction “Display None on Load” and
*set display to “none”
For the button, I
*created the interaction “Show and Hide”-
*set it to affect different element “hidden text block”
*set the height of the element to 0
*set it to show ‘block’ (instead of none)
*set transition to 0
*created second step…
*set height to ‘auto’
*set it to show ‘block’ because nothing was selected (but even if I don’t do this nothing changes)
Click “Preview” nothing happens when I click the button - for that matter, the text is still showing so it never goes away to begin with.
I have followed the video 3 times now and I’m getting so frustrated. I’m sure it’s something little and stupid that I’m not doing or not doing right but I’m not catching whatever that is. I did click “Done” each step of the way.
Thanks in advance. Some day I’ll get this site done…maybe

I got this to work, but I know it’s costly and time consuming, but new videos that match the current webflow setup would be tremendous to those of us who don’t just naturally figure stuff out
