If you have followed the correct installation steps for setting up the Facebook/Meta pixel on your Webflow site but the pixel is not being detected, there are a few possible reasons for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take:

Verify the pixel installation: Double-check that you have implemented the pixel code correctly on your Webflow site. Ensure that the code is placed in the correct location, such as the custom code settings in the site settings or on specific pages using custom code integrations.
Clear cache and test in incognito mode: Sometimes, cached versions of your website can prevent the pixel from being detected. Clear your browser cache and test the pixel installation in incognito mode to see if that resolves the issue.
Use the Facebook Pixel Helper: Install the Facebook Pixel Helper browser extension, which helps diagnose pixel installation issues. Open your website in a new incognito window and see if the Pixel Helper detects the pixel. It will provide troubleshooting suggestions if there are any issues.
Check for conflicts with other scripts: Make sure that there are no conflicts with other scripts or plugins on your website that might interfere with the pixel's functioning. Temporarily disable any conflicting scripts or plugins and check if the pixel is detected.
Test with a different browser or device: Try accessing your website on a different browser or device to see if the issue is isolated to a specific browser or device. This will help identify whether the problem is with the pixel installation or with the browser/device configuration.
Contact Facebook/Meta support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, contact Facebook Ads Support or Meta's support for further assistance. They can help troubleshoot specific pixel installation problems and provide guidance on resolving the issue.

Remember, accurately implementing the Facebook/Meta pixel on your Webflow site is crucial for tracking user behavior and optimizing your advertising campaigns. By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify and resolve any issues preventing the pixel from being detected.
