What could be causing the issue with being unable to change the source of the collection list on the homepage in Webflow?
There are several potential causes for being unable to change the source of a collection list on the homepage in Webflow. Here are some possible reasons and troubleshooting steps to help resolve this issue:
Missing Collection: Ensure that the desired collection exists in your Webflow project. If it does not exist, create a new collection by going to the Collections panel and clicking on the "+ New Collection" button.
Pagination Settings: Check if the collection list on the homepage has pagination enabled. If pagination is enabled, you may not be able to change the source. To disable pagination, select the collection list, go to the Settings panel, and uncheck the "Enable Pagination" option.
Collection List Settings: Confirm that the collection list on the homepage is set to pull data from the correct collection. Select the collection list, go to the Settings panel, and make sure the "Collection" field is set to the desired collection.
Collection Template: Verify that you have properly set up the collection template. The collection template determines how the individual items in the collection are displayed on the homepage. Ensure that the collection template is linked to the correct collection and that it includes all the necessary dynamic elements to display the collection data.
Cache Issues: Clear your browser cache and refresh the page to eliminate any potential caching problems. Sometimes, cached data can prevent changes from being reflected on the live site.
Nested Collection Lists: If you have nested collection lists, make sure that each collection list is properly connected to its respective collection and that the collection being used for the nested list is available in your project.
Webflow Bugs: Occasionally, Webflow may have bugs or issues that affect the functionality of collection lists. In such cases, it is recommended to contact Webflow Support for assistance.
By troubleshooting these potential causes, you should be able to pinpoint the issue and resolve the problem with changing the source of the collection list on your Webflow homepage.
