Issues with the Collection List Setup

At a glance

A community member is having issues with the collection list setup in Webflow and has shared a Loom video explaining the problem. Other community members have provided some suggestions:

@Thomas mentions that adding CMS to sliders is not natively supported in Webflow, and recommends using the Finsweet attributes CMS Slider to make it work.

Another community member suggests starting with the self-support provided by Finsweet, and notes that the preview does not show any attributes on the slider. They also advise against nesting the slider into the CMS collection, and recommend keeping the collection and slider separate, with Finsweet's JavaScript handling the nesting of the CMS into the slider.

There is no explicitly marked answer in the comments.

@U02MRTJHDNX I'm really stuck here, can you please help me out here?

@Matt any tips here?

@Thomas adding CMS to sliders is not supported natively in Webflow. You'll have to use the Finsweet attributes CMS Slider in order to make it work. https://finsweet.com/attributes/cms-slider

@Matt I followed all steps and the end result is in the loom I send

Would start with the self-support that Finsweet has - just add the query parameter to the end of your published URL:
https://finsweet.com/attributes/support

But additionally, quick peek at the preview - I dont see any attributes on the slider. You also shouldn't nest the slider into the CMS collection. You want the collection and slider to be separate. Finsweet Javascript will take care of nesting the CMS into the slider.
