GoHighLevel Funnel Animations Guide
ClickUp users who are moving into funnel and website building will find that GoHighLevel offers flexible animation controls for sections, rows, and elements. This how-to guide walks you step-by-step through customizing animations so your pages look polished, load smoothly, and stay focused on conversions.
All instructions here are based directly on the official GoHighLevel documentation for animation customizations in funnels and websites, adapted into a practical tutorial format.
What Are Animations in GoHighLevel Funnels?
In GoHighLevel funnels and websites, animations control how individual parts of a page appear as visitors scroll. You can animate:
- Sections – large horizontal blocks of your page
- Rows – structural containers inside sections
- Elements – text, images, buttons, forms, etc.
Each area has an Advanced tab where you can enable movement, fade-ins, and other visual effects that trigger when a visitor reaches that part of the page.
Where to Find Animation Settings in GoHighLevel
The animation settings in GoHighLevel are always located under the Advanced tab for the item you are editing. The path is almost identical across sections, rows, and elements.
Accessing the Funnel or Website Editor in GoHighLevel
- Log into your GoHighLevel account.
- Open the Funnels or Websites area.
- Select the funnel or website where you want to add animations.
- Click Edit on the specific page (step) you want to customize.
Once the builder opens, you can select any section, row, or element to start adjusting its animation.
How to Animate Sections in GoHighLevel
Sections are the largest building blocks on a page. Applying animations at the section level in GoHighLevel is useful when you want a full-width block to move or fade in together.
Steps to Enable Section Animation
- In the page builder, hover over the section you want to animate.
- Click on the section to open its settings panel.
- Go to the Advanced tab.
- Scroll down to locate the Animation options.
- Enable an animation style (such as fade, slide, or other available presets).
- Adjust any timing or direction options if they are available in your version.
- Click Save in the builder to apply your changes.
Section animations are ideal for hero areas, full-width banners, and large feature blocks that need a more dramatic entrance.
How to Animate Rows in GoHighLevel
Rows sit inside sections and help you create columns and structured layouts. Applying animations at the row level in GoHighLevel lets you animate grouped content such as side-by-side text and image blocks.
Steps to Enable Row Animation
- In the builder, hover over the row you want to animate.
- Click on the row to open its settings.
- Select the Advanced tab in the row settings.
- Scroll down to find the Animation area.
- Choose your preferred animation style from the available options.
- Adjust animation settings such as delay or type if available.
- Save your changes to confirm the animation behavior.
Use row-level animations when you want multiple elements—like an image, headline, and button—to move together as one group.
How to Animate Elements in GoHighLevel
Elements are the individual components like text blocks, images, videos, and buttons. In GoHighLevel you can animate each element separately to highlight key content or calls to action.
Steps to Enable Element Animation
- Click the specific element you want to animate (for example, a button or headline).
- In the settings panel, go to the Advanced tab.
- Scroll until you see the Animation settings.
- Select an animation style for the element.
- Optionally modify any available speed or delay options.
- Click Save to store your changes.
Element-level animations work best for drawing attention to key actions such as “Buy Now” buttons, opt-in forms, or testimonial highlights.
Best Practices for GoHighLevel Animation Settings
While animations can make funnels and websites more engaging, they should be used thoughtfully in GoHighLevel to maintain performance and readability.
Keep Animations Subtle and Purpose-Driven
- Use animations to guide user attention, not to decorate every item.
- Avoid applying complex effects to too many sections on one page.
- Prioritize animations on key conversion elements like signup areas or primary offers.
Maintain Page Speed and Usability
- Test your funnel or website after adding multiple animations.
- Check how animations behave on mobile, tablet, and desktop views.
- Ensure that content is still readable even if animations do not render for some users.
Ensure Consistency Across GoHighLevel Pages
- Choose a small set of animation styles and reuse them throughout your funnel.
- Apply similar animation behavior to similar components (for example, all primary buttons).
- Keep timing patterns consistent so the experience feels intentional and professional.
Testing Your GoHighLevel Animations
Once you have configured animations, always test how they work in the live environment.
- Click Preview in the GoHighLevel builder.
- Scroll through the page from top to bottom.
- Watch for sections, rows, and elements to animate as they come into view.
- Make sure no content becomes difficult to read or interact with.
- Open the page on both desktop and mobile devices to confirm responsiveness.
If anything feels too distracting or slow, return to the Advanced tab for that item and adjust or remove the animation.
