How can I modify the colors and design of the navbar on mobile in Webflow?

TL;DR
  • Switch to a mobile breakpoint in Webflow and open the mobile menu via the hamburger icon.
  • Style the Navbar, Menu Button, and Dropdown Menu using the Style panel and apply classes for consistent, reusable styling.

To modify the colors and design of the navbar on mobile in Webflow, you need to target styles specifically for the mobile breakpoints.

1. Switch to the Mobile Viewport

  • At the top of the Webflow Designer, click the device icons (Tablet, Mobile Landscape, Mobile Portrait) to view and edit styles for those specific breakpoints.
  • Changes made in smaller breakpoints only affect that and smaller sizes, not desktop.

2. Select the Navbar Element

  • Click on the Navbar component (or select it via the Navigator panel).
  • If you're focusing on the mobile menu, also click the Menu Button ("hamburger") and open the menu so you can style the Mobile Menu that appears.

3. Style Navbar Background, Text, and Icons

  • Navbar background: With the Navbar selected, use the Style panel to set the background color, padding, or borders.
  • Nav links: Select a Nav Link item inside the menu and change the text color, hover styles, or typography.
  • Menu icon: Click the Menu Button and style its color or size, using the Fill property for SVG icons.

4. Modify the Mobile Menu Dropdown

  • Open the Mobile Menu by clicking the hamburger icon in the Designer.
  • Then select the dropdown panel (by default it's called Navbar Menu), and adjust:
  • Background color of the dropdown
  • Padding and layout
  • Text alignment for menu links

5. Use Classes for Better Control

  • Apply or edit classes rather than styling with “All x elements.” This allows for consistent, reusable styling across elements.
  • You can create combo classes if you need the mobile menu to look different from the desktop version.

6. Preview and Publish

  • Use the Preview mode in each viewport to test the behavior.
  • Once the design looks good, publish to make the changes live.

Summary

To style your navbar for mobile in Webflow, switch to a mobile breakpoint, open the mobile menu, and apply styles directly to the Navbar, Menu button, and dropdown menu. Always use classes for consistent styling and preview changes before publishing.
