There are a surprising range of situations in which I find myself needing to generate HTML in a collection list, using custom attributes which make use of CMS data.

This is because a lot of scripts and widgets like video players use custom attributes and when you want to bind them to a collection list, you need to be able to provide that data.
Of course, you could use an HTML Embed, and create the entire chunk of HTML within it- but this defeats the whole point of the Webflow Designer.
No one wants to give up all that visual design capability for one pesky custom attribute.
Fortunately, there is a way.

SU Dynamic Attributes
We've added a Dynamic Attributes feature to WFU, so that you can do this easily and with fine-tuned control.
You can add CMS-driven custom attributes to your Collection Lists, with one library reference and a small embed to describe the attribute you want.
