There could be several reasons why an image is not being displayed in the live mobile version of a Webflow site, even after adjusting its size. Here are some possible causes and solutions:

  1. Image size: If the image is too large in terms of its file size or dimensions, it may not load properly on mobile devices with slower connections or smaller screens. Try reducing the file size or dimensions of the image to optimize it for mobile devices.

  2. Image format: Certain image formats, such as TIFF or BMP, may not be supported by all browsers or devices. Ensure that the image is saved in a common web-friendly format like JPEG, PNG, or GIF.

  3. Responsive settings: Check the responsive settings for the image element in Webflow to ensure that it is set up correctly. Make sure that the image is not hidden on mobile devices or overridden by any media queries or interactions.

  4. Media query conflicts: If there are conflicting media queries on the site, it's possible that one of them is hiding or manipulating the image on mobile devices. Inspect the CSS code or interactions that may be affecting the image and make adjustments accordingly.

  5. File path or URL: Double-check the file path or URL of the image to ensure that it is correct. If the image is hosted externally, make sure that the URL is accessible and not returning any errors.

  6. Cache issues: Clear the cache on your mobile device or try viewing the site in an incognito/private browsing window to rule out any caching issues.

  7. Browser compatibility: Test the site on different mobile devices and browsers to see if the issue persists across all platforms. If the image displays correctly on some devices but not others, it may indicate a browser-specific compatibility issue.

By troubleshooting these possible causes, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue of an image not being displayed in the live mobile version of a Webflow site.
