Using Existing Style Guide in Webflow: Can You Import Later?

·Jun 19, 2025 06:51 AM·

Quick question: I've used the style guide import with Webflow before but if I want to import one later but make a start on building pages can I just select "Use existing Style Guide in this project" and then come back and import the right version later? Or is it a one chance only at the first step of app within Webflow?

Kieran L. ah yeah really good question - honestly that workflow should work just fine. Please let me know if it doesn't though because in my opinion it should work that way, yes.

Would be good to understand the roadmap for this - is more granular editing and multiple updates or sync on there?

Kieran L. its a limitation of Webflow that causes this bit of a work-around. So its not something we could even try to solve if we wanted to, unfortunately.
