There can be several reasons why a website may not be functioning properly even if the hosting settings are correct and no changes have been made to the DNS settings in the domain on Webflow:

  1. Server-related issues: The website may be experiencing server issues or downtime from the hosting provider. In such cases, the website may not load or display properly.

  2. Coding errors or bugs: It's possible that there are errors or bugs in the website's code that are causing functionality issues. This can include issues with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or any other code used in the website's design.

  3. Browser compatibility: The website may not be compatible with certain browsers or versions of browsers. This can lead to rendering issues or broken functionality on specific browsers.

  4. Cache or outdated files: Cached files in your browser or on a CDN (Content Delivery Network) could be causing the website to not load or display updated content. Clearing your browser cache or purging your CDN cache may help resolve this issue.

  5. Third-party integration problems: If the website uses third-party integrations, such as forms, API connections, or plugins, any issues with these integrations can affect the website's functionality. Make sure that these integrations are properly configured and functioning correctly.

  6. External factors: Sometimes, external factors such as network issues, internet connectivity problems, or DNS propagation delays can impact the website's performance. These issues are usually temporary and may resolve on their own.

If you have checked all of these factors and the website is still not functioning properly, it may be worth reaching out to Webflow support for further assistance. They can investigate the issue and provide guidance on how to resolve it.
