To fix the issue of images disappearing in grids when viewed on mobile in Webflow, follow these steps:

  1. Check the image settings:
  • Make sure that the images are not set to display only on specific breakpoints. Double-check the display settings for the images in the grid to ensure they are set to display on all devices.
  1. Clear browser cache and cookies:
  • Sometimes, the issue may be due to cached files on the browser. Clearing the cache and cookies can help resolve this problem. Ask your users to clear their browser cache and cookies and reload the website to see if the issue persists.
  1. Adjust grid settings:
  • If the images are larger than the grid containers on mobile devices, they may be overflowing or disappearing. Try adjusting the grid settings to accommodate the size of the images. Increase the size of the grid containers or reduce the size of the images to fit within the grid cells.
  1. Use responsive sizing options:
  • Webflow provides responsive sizing options that allow you to set different dimensions for images on different devices. Check if the images have the appropriate responsive sizing settings. Adjust the dimensions and positioning to ensure they fit well within the grid on mobile devices.
  1. Test on various devices:
  • View the website on different mobile devices to see if the issue is specific to a particular device or screen size. Use Webflow's responsive design mode to simulate different devices. If the problem is consistent across multiple devices, it may require further troubleshooting.
  1. Check for conflicting styles:
  • Sometimes, conflicting styles can interfere with the proper display of images in grids on mobile. Review the styles applied to the grid and the images within it. Make sure there are no conflicting margins, paddings, or positioning rules that may be causing the issue.
  1. Preview and publish changes:
  • After making adjustments, preview your changes within Webflow's designer to see if the issue is resolved. If everything looks good, publish the changes to your live site.

Remember to thoroughly test your website on different devices and screen sizes to ensure the images within grids are consistently visible. Regularly checking for responsiveness issues and optimizing your website's design can enhance the user experience and improve SEO.
