Is there a workaround in Webflow to make all slides equal height based on the tallest slide?

Webflow’s native Slider component does not automatically equalize slide heights, which can lead to layout shifts if each slide has varying content lengths. Here's how to create a workaround to match all slide heights based on the tallest slide.

1. Use Flexbox Layout for the Slider Mask

• Select the “Slider Mask” element inside the Webflow Slider component.
• Set its display setting to Flex, with flex-direction: row, and align-items: stretch.
• This makes all slides within the mask stretch to the height of the tallest sibling, assuming the container allows it.

2. Set Slides to Stretch

• Select a Slide inside the slider.
• Make sure it's set to Display: Flex (use vertical column layout) and Height: Auto.
• Style the inner content to fill the slide’s height if needed using flex-grow: 1 or full height settings.

3. Prevent Automatic Slider Resizing

• By default, the Webflow slider will adjust height to the content of the current slide.
• To maintain a consistent height, set a fixed height on the Slider element (optional), or allow it to stretch based on the tallest slide if using Flexbox.

4. Use Overflow Hidden for Transitions

• Set the Slider Mask to Overflow: Hidden to prevent hidden content from affecting height.
• This ensures that off-screen slides still influence overall height without being visibly stacked.

5. Use Custom JavaScript (Optional for Full Control)

If you're using dynamic CMS content or need stricter control, you can use small custom JavaScript to calculate the tallest slide and apply it to all slides:

• Add an Embed component or custom code before the closing tag.
• In the script, select all .w-slide elements, measure their height, and apply the tallest height to all slides and slider mask.

Example (overview only — no actual code per instructions):

• Loop through all slides.
• Get each slide’s offsetHeight.
• Apply the tallest height via style.height to each slide and optionally the mask container.

Summary

To equalize slide heights in Webflow, use Flexbox on the Slider Mask to stretch all slides based on the tallest one. For more complex setups or dynamic content, custom JavaScript can ensure consistency across slide heights.
