How can I fix the issue of all the blog pages on my Webflow site returning a 404 error after adding a new blog post?
To fix the issue of all the blog pages on your Webflow site returning a 404 error after adding a new blog post, you can follow these steps:
Double-check your published URL: Verify that the published URL of the new blog post is correct and matches the format of the other blog post URLs on your site. Make sure there are no typos or inconsistencies in the URL structure.
Check your collection settings: Go to your Webflow Designer and navigate to the Collection Editor for your blog posts. Confirm that the new blog post has been correctly added to the collection and that its status is set to "Published."
Generate a new site map: Once you have confirmed that the blog post is correctly published and added to the collection, generate a new site map for your Webflow site. This will help search engines crawl and index your new blog post correctly.
Check your slug settings: In the Collection Editor, make sure the slug (the part of the URL that comes after the domain) for the new blog post is correctly set. If you have a dynamic list of blog posts on your blog page, ensure that the slug field is pulling the correct data from the collection for each blog post.
Republish your site: After making any necessary adjustments, republish your entire Webflow site. This will ensure that all changes, including the new blog post and any related settings, are pushed live.
Clear browser cache: Sometimes, browsers cache old versions of web pages, leading to 404 errors. Clearing your browser cache can help resolve this issue. If you're still experiencing the issue after following the above steps, try accessing your blog pages in an incognito or private browsing window to rule out cache issues.
By following these steps, you should be able to fix the issue of 404 errors on your blog pages after publishing a new blog post on your Webflow site.
