Creating Button Hover Effects in Webflow

Log into Webflow and open your project by navigating to the dashboard and selecting your desired project.

Add a button to your page by opening the Add Panel on the left side, finding the button element, and dragging it onto your canvas. Customize the button text as needed.

Select the button to open the Style Panel on the right side. Adjust the size, color, and other styles of your button here.

Set up the initial button style by determining elements like background color, text color, border, padding, and font size. This is the default style users will see.

Create a hover style by clicking the States dropdown in the Style Panel and selecting Hover. This allows you to modify the button’s appearance when hovered over.

Design your hover effect by experimenting with changes such as:

- Background Color: Alter the color for a striking contrast.
- Scaling: Use the Transform section to subtly increase the size, like setting the scale to 1.1.
- Shadow: Add a shadow to give a floating appearance as the button enlarges.

Switch back to the Normal state to adjust other properties if needed.

Preview your design by clicking the Preview button at the top of the Webflow designer. Hover over the button to test the effects and make adjustments if necessary.

Publish your changes with the Publish button in the upper right corner, making your hover effect live on your site.

Test on various devices using Webflow’s device preview options. Remember hover effects are mainly for desktop, so consider how the button will appear and function on mobile.

With these steps, you can create engaging and interactive button hover effects in Webflow, enhancing your website’s user interface.
