If you are experiencing issues with your CMS Template slider in Webflow, such as a blank slide appearing with a "+1" indicator, there are a few steps you can take to fix the problem:

  1. Check your conditional visibility settings: The first thing you should do is review your conditional visibility settings for the slide that is appearing blank. Conditional visibility allows you to show or hide elements based on specific conditions. Make sure that the conditions you have set for the slide are accurate and that there are no conflicting conditions causing the issue.

  2. Verify your CMS collection settings: Next, double-check your CMS collection settings to ensure that the correct items are being used for the slider. Verify that the items in the collection correspond to the slides you want to display and that there are no duplicated or empty items causing the extra slide.

  3. Clear your cache and refresh: Sometimes, caching issues can cause display errors in Webflow. Try clearing your browser cache and refreshing the page to see if this resolves the problem. Additionally, you can open the page in an incognito or private browsing window to ensure that the issue is not related to caching.

  4. Adjust slide layout and settings: If the above steps did not solve the problem, you can try adjusting the layout and settings of the slide. Make sure that the slide's dimensions, positioning, and styling are correctly set. Also, check if there are any interactions or animations applied to the slide that may be interfering with its display.

  5. Contact Webflow support: If you have exhausted all the troubleshooting steps and the issue persists, it may be best to reach out to Webflow support for assistance. They will have more in-depth knowledge of the platform and can help you identify and resolve any underlying technical issues causing the problem.

By following these steps, you should be able to fix the issue with your CMS Template slider displaying a blank slide with conditional visibility set in Webflow.
