  • Style the section using Webflow’s Designer to match your desired look.
  • Add animations or auto-scroll using Webflow Interactions for dynamic effects.

Yes, you can create a breaking news section in Webflow similar to the one on UFC champion Miesha Tate’s website without any programming knowledge, using Webflow’s CMS (Content Management System) and Interactions features.

1. Set Up a CMS Collection for News

  • Go to CMS (left panel) and click + Create New Collection.
  • Name it “Breaking News” or “News Updates.”
  • Add fields like Title, Summary, Link, and Publish Date.
  • Click Create Collection once you're done.

2. Add a CMS Collection List to Your Page

  • On your desired page or section, drag a Collection List from the Add panel (press A).
  • Bind it to your Breaking News CMS collection.
  • Inside the list, add Text Blocks and Links to display the CMS items like news headlines or summaries.

3. Style the News Section

  • Use Webflow's Designer to style fonts, padding, borders, and background to match Miesha Tate’s site.
  • Add Icons, Color Highlights, or Banners to make the section stand out as “Breaking News.”

4. Add Interactions or Auto-Scroll (Optional)

  • Use Webflow Interactions to animate the news bar (e.g., fade in/out or scroll horizontally).
  • For marquee-style auto-scrolling, create a div with overflow hidden, and use Move and Loop interactions to scroll the news text continuously.

5. Use Conditional Visibility (Advanced Appearance Control)

  • If you only want to show the section when there is breaking news:
  • Add a Switch field in your CMS called “Is Breaking.”
  • Set your Collection List or Wrapper to show only if "Is Breaking" is on using Conditional Visibility.

Summary

You can absolutely build a dynamic breaking news section in Webflow without coding by using the CMS, collection lists, and interactions. It can look and function similarly to Miesha Tate’s site with just visual tools.
