When experiencing issues with clicking on your Blog Collection page in Webflow, there can be several potential causes. Here are some common issues and their corresponding solutions:

  1. Page not found error:
  • Check if the URL structure is set up correctly for your Blog Collection page. It should follow the format: [website.com/blog/post-slug]. Ensure that the "post-slug" matches the actual slug of the specific blog post.
  • Verify that the page is published and not set to draft. In the Webflow Designer, go to the Pages panel and check the visibility status of the specific Blog Collection page.
  1. Broken links:
  • Check if any links on the Blog Collection page are broken or not pointing to the correct destination. Ensure that the href attribute for each link is correctly entered and matches the URL of the respective blog post or page.
  • If you are using custom code or third-party integrations, make sure they are properly implemented and not causing any conflicts that might result in broken links.
  1. Template or layout issues:
  • If the Blog Collection page is not displaying correctly or is not showing any content, verify that the template and layout are set up properly. Check if any elements or sections are hidden or set to display:none in the CSS.
  • Make sure that the collection binded to the Blog Collection page is correctly linked and the necessary fields are added within the collection.
  1. CMS limitations:
  • If you have set up advanced filtering or sorting options on your Blog Collection page, double-check that the conditions and rules are correctly specified. Incorrect settings can lead to unexpected behavior or issues with page navigation.
  • Check the number of items per page set for the collection list or dynamic list on the Blog Collection page. If the chosen value is too low or set to zero, it can result in no content being displayed.

It's important to review and troubleshoot these potential issues to determine the root cause and resolve the problem. If the issue persists, reaching out to the Webflow support forum or contacting the Webflow support team directly can provide additional assistance and guidance.
