Ability to edit links of link blocks in the Editor

Would be great if this feature will be reintroduced so that clients can change not only the text of link blocks, but also the link itself.

    For the love of of pixels, pleeeease enable editing urls on link blocks in edit mode. Fixing issues accidentally created by people we've had to allow into the designer to edit simple links is a real adrenaline rush but exhausting.

    Hello client, yes you just want to change a simple link, no this is not wordpress, it's the super friendly and advanced webflow platform!! Ok cool... but can i change it then? No no no! you need to call our agency to change this link....


    webflow, get your act together, cms is missing so much basic (wordpress) features it drives my clients nuts.

    I love Webflow, but it blows my mind this feature isn't active. Creating custom buttons is almost standard for every project I do, and the "button" element is incredibly limited given you can't add children elements to it! How are we getting all these incredible updates (branches, localization, components, etc.) but editing a link block in the editor is too much?? Make it make sense! 😭

    Clients require this functionality in the websites I create for them. Is there another solution?

    It's crazy that this doesn't work. We are giving the websites to clients and they shall be able to edit as much as possible.

    Hi, is there an update on this? Our client/partner just inquired about whether they have the ability to edit/change things like social media button links (on their own in the Editor).


    At the moment, this can't be designed within a button — only a link block. Any updates would be appreciated.

    Still no update after more than 3 years? This request maybe has not many votes but I wouldn't call it a "feature". It is more an essential. Customers start to feel screwed, because they thought in Webflow you can just click and change everything... But if that doesn't work even with simple links, it doesn't make a good picture. Neither of Webflow nor of us.

    Dear readers, Dear Webflow team


    The function of adjusting the links in the editor mode is an absolutely basic thing which should not be missing. Every competitor product offers this feature, so it should be shameful for webflow not to include it. From a customer's point of view, this is highly unattractive. The user in the editor should be able to customize not only images and text, but also ALL links such as documents, weblikns email, phone, etc..


    Thank you for a comment and the development of a timely solution.

    The marketing team here and client are annoyed that they cannot change the link on the image.

    Please, help all of us who have any client and marketing teams.

    I want to add a link to some images I add directly in the editor and I can't. I can only add the alt text. :S How is this not an option?
