There could be multiple factors causing alignment issues and disappearing links in the mobile landscape view of a website built with Webflow. Here are some possible reasons and solutions to consider:

  1. CSS Styling: Check if there are any CSS rules or styles applied specifically to the landscape view that might be causing misalignment or hiding links. Review the "Mobile Landscape" breakpoint in the Styles panel and ensure that the styles are applied correctly. Make sure there are no conflicting styles or media queries affecting the layout.

  2. Responsive Design: Verify that the website layout is built using responsive design techniques. Webflow provides various options to control the layout and appearance of elements in different breakpoints. Check if the elements that are misaligned or hidden have proper settings for the landscape view. Adjust the width, height, margin, and padding values to ensure proper alignment.

  3. Overflow: If the misalignment or disappearing links are caused by elements overflowing their container, it is possible that the container does not have the correct overflow settings. Ensure that the container has "overflow: auto" or "overflow: hidden" applied to prevent elements from overflowing and causing alignment issues.

  4. Hidden Elements: It's possible that some elements are intentionally hidden in the landscape view using Webflow's "Display" settings. Check if any elements have a display value of "None" specifically in the landscape breakpoint. Adjust the display settings accordingly, if needed.

  5. Link Visibility: If the links are disappearing in the landscape view, check if they have appropriate styling and contrast against the background. Make sure that the links have a distinct color or underline, and are not blending with the surrounding elements. Adjust the CSS styles of the links to enhance their visibility.

  6. Browser Compatibility: Different browsers may render websites differently, which can lead to alignment issues or disappearing links. Test the website in multiple browsers and ensure that the issues are consistent across all of them. If specific issues are observed in a particular browser, consider using browser-specific CSS rules or workarounds to fix the problem.

By systematically checking these factors and applying relevant solutions, you should be able to identify and resolve the alignment issues and disappearing links in the mobile landscape view of a website built with Webflow.
