Love this idea! Wondering if maybe there would be another feature you would be interested in adding since you are obviously adept at extension creation. I have wanted for some time, to have some sort of indicator on screen when I am in a view-mode/breakpoint that isn’t the base desktop. My thought was that the designer window could be outlined in a thick red border, just to indicate that im not in the base breakpoint. I dont know how many times ive been testing… make changes to a breakpoint, start editing other things only to realize i wasn’t in the right view mode and have to go back and fix it all. Something like that would be super useful i think… Not that you asked for requests… just a thought!
Is it possible for a Chrome extension to control the selection & entry into the text box picker for a Multi-reference field? That would reduce a lot of tedious work to connect records in one collection to another…
Hi Dustin,
Thanks for the suggestion! I actually just released an update for Modkit that includes a feature somewhat similar to what you suggested.
You’ll receive an alert whenever you first edit a breakpoint that isn’t the base desktop. You’ll also periodically receive reminder alerts if you’ve been editing a non-desktop breakpoint for a while.
This update also includes an alert when you edit the styles of a class affecting multiple elements. This has been great for preventing unexpected changes and bugs.
Hi Anthony,
I’m sad to say that after several attempts, unfortunately I was never able to get either the Style Manager Search or A-Z sort working properly.
I reallyyy wanted to make this happen, but with the way the Designer works, it’ll have to be up to the Webflow team to decide if they want to add this to the Style Manager.
I have one project that has a collection of Universities and a collection of courses at the universities, and both need to be linked to each other – each course has a Reference for the university (which I’m importing via CSV) but in order to display the corresponding courses on the University’s collection page, I had to link all the course collection items in the University’s Multi-Reference field.
To select the relevant courses (which conveniently had the University’s name in the Name field, which displays in the dropdown list) I would simply copy the University name, then paste it into the Multi-Reference text picker and press enter…… repeat until all the items that matched that university’s name had been added.
The process took me around 45 minutes (wasn’t that bad, I meditated through the repetitive keystrokes) but I couldn’t help wondering with my limited knowledge of programming if it was something that the browser could do for me —
Hi @cspags I’ve been using the Modkit extension for years now and it’s become integral to the way I work. I realised today that it wasn’t working. I’ve taken a few days off for Christmas but any issue with it couldn’t have occurred more than a week or so ago. Is this an issue you are aware of - is this something you are likely to resolve or is it gone for good (I hope not)? Thanks, Richard
Hey @Richard_Howarth, I too was a big fan of ModKit. It actually inspired me to build my own chrome extension… and with the permission from Chris Spags himself, I rebuilt ModKits features and will be ongoingly maintaining it from bugs… but also building some other useful features you might like… check it out AidKit for Webflow
, personally I’ve always wished the breadcrumb bar was at the top of the Designer instead of the bottom.
