If you are experiencing an issue with your SVG logo not displaying in Webflow's Designer and in Chrome on desktop and mobile, but it works fine on Microsoft Edge, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this problem.
Check the SVG file:
- Ensure that the SVG file is properly formatted and not corrupted. Open the SVG file in a text editor to verify its integrity.
- Make sure that the SVG file has the correct file extension (.svg) and is not mistakenly saved with a different extension.
Verify SVG compatibility:
- Confirm that the SVG file is compatible with all browsers by checking its SVG code. Use an SVG validator tool or an online SVG optimizer to verify its compatibility.
- Ensure that the SVG file does not use any unsupported features or attributes that some browsers might not render correctly.
Review SVG styling:
- Check the CSS styling applied to the SVG element. Make sure that there are no conflicting styles or attributes that prevent the SVG from being displayed.
- Review the dimensions of the SVG element. It should have appropriate width and height values to ensure proper rendering.
Optimize SVG for web:
- Compress the SVG file to reduce its file size. Use an online SVG optimizer or a graphics program such as Adobe Illustrator to optimize the SVG file without compromising its quality.
- Minify the SVG file's code to remove unnecessary spaces, comments, and line breaks. This can help improve loading times and compatibility.
Test on different devices:
- Check the SVG file on various devices and browsers to identify whether it is a cross-browser compatibility issue or specific to Chrome on desktop and mobile. Test it on Firefox, Safari, and other popular browsers to determine if the issue persists.
Clear cache:
- Clear the cache in Chrome on desktop and mobile as a cached version of the SVG file may be causing the issue. To do this, go to Chrome's settings, click on "Clear browsing data," select "Cached images and files," and clear the cache.
Upload the SVG file to Webflow:
- If you are still experiencing issues, try uploading the SVG file directly to Webflow's assets instead of linking to an external resource. Sometimes, the issue might be related to the way Webflow handles SVG files.
By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and fix the issue of your SVG logo not displaying correctly in Webflow's Designer and Chrome on desktop and mobile, while it works fine in Microsoft Edge.
