How to Add a Categorized Image Gallery to a Webflow Site.

Webflow's Embed element accepts custom code, which makes adding a Categorized Image Gallery straightforward, and because the widget is hosted, you can keep tweaking its content later without opening the Designer or republishing the site.

Step by step

Embed the Categorized Image Gallery in your Webflow site.

01

Create the widget in Fugte

Start from the Categorized Image Gallery starter, generate a variation with the built-in AI, or paste your own code.

02

Customize and publish it in Fugte

Text, colors, images, numbers, and options are no-code settings, so you can match your branding without touching code. Publishing gives the Categorized Image Gallery a stable hosted link and an embed snippet.

03

Drag in an Embed element

In the Webflow Designer, drag an Embed element from the Add panel to where the widget should sit and paste the embed snippet into the code editor.

04

Publish the site

Save and publish. The Categorized Image Gallery renders live on the published site; later content changes happen in the widget editor, with no republish needed.

Good to know

Webflow specifics worth planning around.

Webflow's custom-code Embed element requires a paid Webflow site plan. On free staging domains, you can link to the hosted widget page instead.

The embed snippet is a few lines, so it uses almost none of the Embed element character limit.

The widget is hosted and sandboxed, so it cannot conflict with Webflow interactions or custom code elsewhere on the page.

Content edits in the widget editor go live immediately, useful when a client wants copy changes but you do not want to republish the Webflow project.

This widget

What the Categorized Image Gallery needs from the embed.

The section above applies to anything you put on a Webflow site. This part is specific to the Categorized Image Gallery.

This widget changes height while someone is using it: opening a row, switching a tab, or filtering down a list. Set the frame height to responsive on the editor's Iframe tab before you publish. A fixed height measured against the state it loads in will clip the expanded content or leave it scrolling inside the frame.

Check it at phone width before you call it done. A row that sits on one line on a laptop often wraps to three on a phone, and that is where a frame sized on a desktop runs short.

Opening a tile shows a preview overlay. It is positioned against the widget's own frame rather than the page behind it, so it can only ever fill the embed box, not darken the whole screen the way a lightbox on a normal site would. Give the frame enough height that the preview has somewhere to open.

The category buttons change how many tiles are on screen, so the height moves as visitors filter. The tallest category is the one to size against.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can I add the Categorized Image Gallery on a free Webflow plan?

The Embed element needs a paid site plan. On free plans you can still add a link or button pointing to the hosted widget page.

Does the Categorized Image Gallery count against Webflow CMS or code limits?

No CMS items are used, and the embed snippet is small. The widget itself is served from an external CDN, not stored in Webflow.

Can a client edit the widget without Designer access?

Yes, that is a common setup. The client edits text, colors, and offers through Fugte's no-code settings; the Webflow layout stays locked.
