Troubleshooting Images Not Showing Up in Webflow Feed on Feedly
If you are experiencing the issue of images not showing up when testing a feed from Webflow on Feedly, there are a few potential causes and solutions to consider:
- Check the Image URLs:
- Make sure that the images being used in your Webflow feed have valid and accessible URLs. Confirm that the image URLs are correct and properly formatted.
- Ensure that the images are hosted on a reliable and publicly accessible server. If the images are hosted on Webflow's asset hosting, ensure that the asset hosting setting is correctly configured.
- Check the Image Paths:
- If you have recently made changes to your website, such as restructuring the file paths or the folder structure, it could affect the image paths. Double-check that the image paths in your feed are correct and correspond to the actual locations of the images.
- Confirm the Image Format Compatibility:
- Ensure that the image format being used is supported by Feedly. Common image formats like JPEG, PNG, and GIF are generally supported, but it's always a good idea to double-check the expected image format compatibility with Feedly's documentation.
- Verify Image Permissions:
- If the images are not publicly accessible or require authentication to view, then Feedly or other RSS readers may not be able to display them. Ensure that the images have the necessary permissions or consider hosting them on a publicly accessible server.
- Cache Issues:
- Clear your browser cache to rule out any caching problems interfering with the display of images in your Feedly feed. It's worth trying this troubleshooting step as a first measure since cached data can sometimes cause unexpected issues.
- Test with Other RSS Readers:
- To determine whether the issue is specific to Feedly or if it's related to your Webflow feed in general, test the feed with other popular RSS readers like Feedreader, Inoreader, or Flipboard. If the images display correctly in other RSS readers, it's possible that the problem lies with Feedly itself.
- Contact Webflow Support:
- If you have exhausted all the troubleshooting steps above and the issue persists, it may be necessary to reach out to Webflow's support team for further assistance. They can help investigate the issue more deeply and provide specific guidance tailored to your situation.
By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the issue of images not showing up when testing a feed from Webflow on Feedly. Remember to double-check your image URLs, paths, formats, permissions, and try testing with alternative RSS readers if necessary.
