Label All Controls - Webflow

Label All Controls in Webflow

1. Open your Webflow project and navigate to the page or component where the controls (form elements, interactive components, toggles, etc.) are located.
2. Select the first control (e.g., a button, input field, checkbox, slider) on the canvas.
3. In the Selector field at the top right, confirm you are editing the correct class. If the element has no class, click “+” to create one and name it descriptively (e.g., “Button–Primary”, “Input–Email”).
4. Scroll to the Settings panel (press D to toggle) and review available fields such as:
   • Text Label for form fields
   • Name and ID fields for interactive components
   • Alt Text for controls that include icons or images
5. Add or update the label text so it clearly describes the control’s purpose (e.g., “Email Address”, “Submit Order”, “Toggle Navigation”).
6. Where applicable, update the Name attribute to a clean, descriptive identifier (e.g., “email-input”, “checkout-submit”). Avoid spaces and special characters.
7. For buttons, double-click the button’s text and rewrite it to match the intended action clearly (e.g., change “Click Here” to “Save Changes”).
8. Repeat steps 2–7 for every control throughout the page, ensuring each label is unique and meaningful.
9. Preview the site using the top-left “Preview” icon and tab through controls to ensure labels read correctly and consistently.
10. Publish the site and perform a final review to verify that all controls are labeled in both the Designer and published version.
