If you are experiencing an issue in Webflow where project pages are shifted to the right and a grey area with vertical text appears on the left side, there are a few potential causes and solutions you can try:

  1. Check the body margin and padding:
  • Go to the Style panel and select the body element.
  • Make sure the margin and padding values are set to 0.
  • If they are not, adjust them accordingly and see if the issue is resolved.
  1. Verify the layout and positioning of your elements:
  • Check if you have any elements positioned or set to float to the left or right of the page.
  • Make sure all elements have proper dimensions and positioning.
  • Check for any elements that might be causing the issue and adjust their styles accordingly.
  1. Review the container styles:
  • Inspect the container elements on your pages.
  • Check if they have any negative margins or padding that might be causing the issue.
  • Adjust the styles of these containers to ensure they are correctly positioned and sized.
  1. Check for conflicting styles:
  • Inspect your project for any conflicting styles that might be affecting the layout.
  • Look for differences in styles between the pages that are affected and those that are not.
  • Make sure there are no conflicting classes or styles applied to the problematic elements.
  1. Reset styles:
  • If all else fails, you can try resetting the styles on the affected elements.
  • Remove any custom styles or classes applied to those elements and see if the issue is resolved.
  • You can also try duplicating the affected pages and working on the new copies to troubleshoot the problem without affecting the live site.

Remember to save your changes and test your site in different browsers and devices to ensure the issue is fully resolved.
