Why/Use Cases

- Show or hide elements on your site based on your visitors’ device, OS, or browser.

Automatically hiding/showing elements to mobile visitors on a Webflow site

Some things just don’t always make sense for certain visitors, which is why you can choose to show or hide certain elements based on what you know your visitors need or don’t need.

For example, you might want to display an App Store button on iOS devices and a Play Store button for Android devices, you might want to hide both on desktop, show a Microsoft Store link on Windows only, and so on.

This guide will help you fine-tune display conditions based on yours and your users’ needs.

To automatically hide or show elements to your mobile visitors, we’re going to use MemberScript #120 – Show/Hide Element Based On Device, OS, or Browser. Follow the link to get the code you’ll need to add to your page and watch a video tutorial on how to set everything up.

Setting it up

The only attribute we’re going to use for this functionality is ms-code-device-show. Add the attribute to whatever you want to apply display conditions to and depending on the use case, only the values will differ.

For example, ms-code-device-show=”mobile” will only display the element on mobile devices, while ms-code-device-show=”desktop” will only display it on desktops.

To achieve the exact opposite, simply add an exclamation point before the value, like so:

· ms-code-device-show”!mobile” – this will hide the element on mobile and display it everywhere else

Additionally, you can combine multiple conditions by using & for “and” and | (vertical line, not capital “i”) for “or,” like so:

· ms-code-device-show=”desktop&tablet” – this will only display the element on desktops and tablets

· ms-code-device-show=”windows|linux” – this will only display the element on either Windows or Linux only

For a full list of available values, see our cloneable page.

Making it work

Now that you’ve got everything set up in Webflow, all you need to do is add the MemberScript #120 custom code to your page (or sitewide), before the closing body tag.

Conclusion

That’s everything, you can now go ahead and test the show/hide functionality on your live site.
