There are several factors that could be causing the background transition on the "Get Started" button in the top section of your Webflow website to not work. Here are some potential issues and solutions to consider:

  1. Incorrect class or ID targeting: Ensure that the background transition is applied to the correct class or ID of the button. Double-check that you have correctly assigned the appropriate class or ID to the button element in the Webflow Designer.

  2. CSS conflicts or overrides: It's possible that there could be conflicting CSS styles or overrides that are preventing the background transition from functioning as expected. Check if there are other CSS styles applied to the button or its parent elements that might be overriding or conflicting with the background transition properties. You may need to adjust or remove conflicting styles to resolve the issue.

  3. Transition properties not set correctly: Make sure that you have defined the desired transition properties in the CSS styles for the button. These properties typically include attributes like background-color, transition, transition-property, transition-duration, transition-timing-function, etc. If any of these properties are missing or incorrect, it could prevent the background transition from working.

  4. Missing or incorrect JavaScript: If you have used JavaScript to trigger the background transition effect, ensure that the JavaScript code is properly implemented and functioning correctly. Check for any errors in the JavaScript console and make necessary adjustments to the code if needed. Additionally, ensure that the JavaScript code is added to the appropriate location in your Webflow project.

  5. Browser compatibility issues: It's possible that the background transition effect is not supported by certain web browsers. Test the website on different browsers (such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari) to see if the issue persists across all of them or only occurs in one specific browser. If the issue is isolated to a specific browser, you may need to consider alternative CSS or JavaScript solutions to achieve the desired effect.

By carefully reviewing and troubleshooting these potential causes, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue with the background transition on the "Get Started" button in your Webflow website.
