Why are the slider dots disappearing when I view my Webflow site on read-only, even though they show up and are functional on the preview?
When encountering the issue of slider dots disappearing on the read-only version of a Webflow site, while they are visible and functional on the preview, several factors could be causing the problem. Here are some potential reasons and solutions to address this issue:
- CSS conflicts: The slider dots might be getting hidden or overridden by conflicting CSS rules. To resolve this, you can try the following steps:
- Inspect the slider dots element using your browser's developer tools.
- Locate any conflicting CSS rules that may be affecting the visibility of the slider dots.
- Override or modify conflicting CSS properties to ensure the slider dots remain visible.
- JavaScript errors: If there are JavaScript errors on the read-only version, they could be causing the slider dots' disappearance. To address this, you can:
- Inspect the browser console for any JavaScript errors.
- Resolve or debug any JavaScript errors to ensure smooth functioning of the slider dots.
- Interaction settings: Ensure that the interaction settings for the slider dots are correctly configured. To check this:
- Select the slider component and ensure that the interaction settings are properly set to display the dots.
- Verify that the interaction is not set to "none" or that any custom code is not interfering with the display of the slider dots.
Viewport settings: If the slider dots are set to be visible only on certain viewport sizes, make sure the read-only version is being viewed on the correct viewport size. Verify the responsive settings and ensure the slider dots are set to be visible on the desired viewport sizes.
Cache and browser issues: Clear the browser cache or try accessing the read-only version on a different browser to rule out any caching or browser-specific issues that may be affecting the visibility of the slider dots.
Webflow limitations: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's possible that there may be a limitation or bug within the Webflow platform itself. In such cases, it is advisable to reach out to Webflow support for further assistance.
By troubleshooting these potential causes, you should be able to determine the reason why the slider dots are disappearing on the read-only version of your Webflow site and find an appropriate solution.
