How can I activate a specific button on the 'Filters' page after clicking a link on the 'Home' page in Webflow?

To activate a specific button on the 'Filters' page after clicking a link on the 'Home' page, you can use URL query parameters combined with custom JavaScript in Webflow.

1. Add Query Parameter to Link on Home Page

• Go to the 'Home' page in Webflow Designer.
• Select the link or button that will navigate to the 'Filters' page.
• In the Link Settings, set the link to something like:
  filters?category=shoes
  Replace category=shoes with a key-value pair relevant to what button you want to activate.

2. Assign Data Attributes to Target Buttons on Filters Page

• Go to the 'Filters' page in Webflow.
• Select the button you want to be activated when the page loads.
• In the Element Settings, add a custom attribute like:
• Name: data-category
• Value: shoes
• Do this for each filter button with unique values.

3. Add Custom JavaScript to Activate Button

• Open the Page Settings for the 'Filters' page.

• Scroll to the Before tag field.

• Paste this custom script (adjust selectors as needed):

  ```javascript

  ```

• This script:

• Reads the query parameter (e.g., category=shoes)

• Finds the button with the matching data-category value

• Triggers a click on that button (or adds an active state)

Summary

Use a query parameter in your link from the 'Home' page and target buttons via data attributes on the 'Filters' page. A small snippet of custom JavaScript detects the parameter and programmatically activates the correct button.
