Here's how to add a flexbox in Webflow

  1. Open the Add Elements Panel

    To begin, locate and click the "Add Elements" button, which is typically a plus icon, situated in the left sidebar of your Webflow designer interface. This action will open a panel displaying various elements you can add to your page.

  2. Access the Search Bar

    Within the opened Add Elements panel, find and click on the "Search elements" input field. This will allow you to quickly find specific elements without scrolling through categories.

  3. Search for Flex Elements

    In the search field, type "Flex." This will filter the list of elements, showing you options like "V Flex" (Vertical Flex) and "H Flex" (Horizontal Flex) that are available for use.

  4. Drag a Flex Element to Your Page

    Once you see the Flex options, click and drag either the "V Flex" or "H Flex" element from the panel directly onto your desired location on the page canvas. Release the mouse button to place it.

  5. Verify the Flex Block is Added

    After dropping the Flex element, it will appear on your page as a "Flex Block." The right-hand panel will automatically update to display its layout and styling properties, confirming its successful addition.
