How can I access and modify the laptop image or text in a Webflow template?

TL;DR
  • In Webflow Designer, locate the laptop image or text using the Navigator panel and select the element.
  • Replace images via the Style panel (for backgrounds) or by clicking the image (for Image elements), and edit text directly in the canvas.
  • If part of a Symbol or CMS, double-click the Symbol to edit or update content from the CMS panel.
  • Preview changes using the Preview mode, then publish to apply updates live.

To update a laptop image or text content in a Webflow template, you’ll need to locate it within the Designer and modify it directly. Here's how.

1. Locate the Section in the Designer

  • Open your Webflow project and go to the Designer.
  • Use the Navigator panel (left sidebar) to browse through the page structure.
  • Look for sections with names like Hero, Features, or similar—templates often label these clearly.
  • If you see a laptop image, click on it to select it in the canvas.

2. Modify the Laptop Image

  • Once selected, the right-hand Style panel will show details for the element.
  • If it’s set as a background image, you’ll find it under Backgrounds in the Style panel. Click the image thumbnail to change it.
  • If it’s a regular Image element, clicking it will bring up an option to Replace Image.
  • You can upload a new image or choose one from the Assets panel.

3. Modify the Text

  • Click directly on the text you want to change in the Visual Designer.
  • The text will become editable—type in your new content.
  • To style the text (font, size, color), use the Style panel on the right.

4. Consider Symbols or CMS

  • If the image or text is part of a Symbol (reusable component), you’ll need to double-click into the Symbol to edit its content.
  • If the content is dynamically loaded from a CMS Collection, hover over the element and check if it shows purple highlights (this indicates a CMS-bound field). You’ll need to edit the CMS item in the CMS panel (left sidebar).

5. Preview and Publish

  • Use the eye icon (Preview mode) in the top-left corner to see changes in real-time.
  • Once satisfied, click Publish to apply the updates to your live site.

Summary

To edit a laptop image or text in a Webflow template, locate the element in the Designer, click to modify it (either as an Image or Background), and directly edit text on the canvas. Check if the section is part of a Symbol or CMS, and use the proper panel to update where needed.
