There could be several reasons why recent blog posts are not showing in the collections wrappers on the home page, footers, and blog page in Webflow. Here are some troubleshooting steps to help you diagnose and fix the issue:
- Check the collection settings:
- Make sure that the collection you are pulling blog posts from is properly configured. Verify that the "Design" and "Settings" for the collection are set up correctly, including the template chosen for the collection items.
- Confirm that the visibility options are correctly set. For example, ensure that the collection items are set to "Visible" and not "Draft" or "Archived".
- Check the filtering and sorting:
- If you have set up any custom filters or sorting options for the collection list, double-check that they are correctly configured and not excluding the recent blog posts.
- Ensure that the sorting order is set to display the most recent blog posts first.
- Check the collection list settings:
- Double-check the collection list settings for the wrapper element on the home page, footers, and blog page. Make sure that it is connected to the correct collection and that the filters and limit options are properly defined.
- Check the dynamic content bindings:
- Review the dynamic content bindings for each element within the collection wrapper. Verify that they are correctly set to display the necessary information from the blog posts, such as title, date, and content.
- If you are using any custom code or scripts, ensure they are properly written and not interfering with the display of the recent blog posts.
- Check the styling and layout:
- Inspect the CSS styles applied to the collection wrapper, collection list, and individual collection items. Make sure there are no conflicting styles or overrides that may be hiding or obstructing the recent blog posts.
- Confirm that the layout and structure of the collection wrapper are appropriate for displaying the blog posts. For example, check that there is enough space allocated for each post and that the layout is responsive.
- Publish and test:
- After making any changes, publish your site and test it to see if the recent blog posts are now showing in the collections wrappers.
- If the issue persists, try testing in different browsers and devices to rule out any compatibility problems.
By going through these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue of recent blog posts not showing in the collections wrappers on the home page, footers, and blog page in Webflow.
