To fix the issue with hidden overflow not working on Chrome and Firefox for your homepage sections in Webflow, you can try the following solutions:

  1. Update your browser: Make sure you are using the latest version of Chrome or Firefox, as older versions may have compatibility issues with certain CSS properties.

  2. Check if the issue occurs on other pages: If hidden overflow works fine on other pages of your website but not on the homepage, review the code or interactions applied specifically to the homepage sections. Identify any conflicting CSS properties or interactions that might be causing the issue.

  3. Inspect the element: Use the browser's developer tools to inspect the element that's not behaving as expected. Look for any conflicting styles or CSS specificity issues that might be overriding the hidden overflow property. Ensure that no other CSS rules are accidentally overriding or overwriting the hidden overflow property.

  4. Use a custom code block: If the issue persists, you can try applying the hidden overflow property using a custom code block. Wrapping the problematic sections with a custom code block and applying the necessary CSS code to hide the overflow can help bypass any issues within the Webflow designer.

  5. Consider using the overflow property on parent containers: If you're experiencing issues with hidden overflow on child elements within a section, you can try applying the overflow property to the parent container instead. This can help contain the overflowing content within the section.

  6. Verify if there are any conflicting interactions: If you have any interactions applied to the problematic sections, disable them temporarily and test if the hidden overflow property starts working. Sometimes, interactions can override the CSS properties and cause unwanted behavior.

By following these steps, you should be able to fix the issue with hidden overflow not working on Chrome and Firefox for your homepage sections in Webflow.
