Why is the interaction on my "Checkout" page not working on the live site when it is working in preview, even though there is custom code being used on the page?
There could be several reasons why the interaction on your "Checkout" page is not working on the live site despite working in preview, even with custom code. Here are some possible explanations and troubleshooting steps to help you resolve the issue:
Check if the custom code is causing conflicts: Sometimes, the custom code used on the page may conflict with the Webflow interactions or other scripts on your site. To address this, try removing the custom code temporarily and see if the interaction starts working on the live site. If it does, review the custom code and ensure it's not interfering with Webflow's default functionality.
Confirm that the custom code is implemented correctly: Double-check if the custom code is implemented correctly on the live site. Make sure that the code is placed in the appropriate location and that no errors or omissions were made during the implementation process.
Ensure that the necessary dependencies are present: Revisit the custom code and make sure any required jQuery or other JavaScript libraries are properly loaded and accessible on the live site. If any dependencies are missing or not functioning correctly, it could prevent the interaction from working as intended.
Verify the selector targeting the interaction elements: Confirm that the interaction is targeting the correct elements on your "Checkout" page. Check if the selector used in the interaction settings matches the class, ID, or other attributes of the elements you want to interact with. It's possible that changes were made to the elements' attributes in the live site that differ from the preview, causing the interaction to fail.
Check for conflicting styles or styles overriding the interactions: Ensure that there are no conflicting CSS styles or styles overriding the interactions on the live site. Inspect the elements using browser developer tools and review the styles applied to them. Look for any CSS rules that may impact the behavior of the interaction, such as positioning, visibility, or opacity.
Clear cache and reload the live site: Sometimes, the browser cache may cause issues with the live site. Clear your browser cache and reload the page to see if that resolves the problem. Additionally, test the interaction on different browsers or devices to check if the issue is specific to a particular environment.
Contact Webflow support: If you've tried the above steps and the interaction still doesn't work on the live site, it may be worth reaching out to Webflow support for further assistance. They will have access to more detailed information about your project and may be able to provide a solution specific to your case.
Remember to always keep a backup of your site, including the custom code, before making any changes or contacting support to ensure you can revert back if needed.
