There could be several factors causing glitches in the Webflow Designer and live site specifically when accessing the CMS section. Here are some potential reasons:
1. Browser compatibility: Some glitches may arise due to compatibility issues with the browser you are using. Webflow recommends using the latest versions of popular browsers like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari. Try accessing the CMS section from a different browser and see if the glitches persist. Clearing the cache and cookies of your browser may also help resolve any temporary issues.
2. Internet connectivity: Slow or unstable internet connections can cause glitches on both the Webflow Designer and live site. Ensure that you have a stable and high-speed internet connection when accessing the CMS section of your site. If the glitches only occur intermittently, it may be worth considering a different internet service provider or troubleshooting your existing connection.
3. Script conflicts: Glitches can sometimes arise if there are conflicts between the scripts used in your Webflow site or third-party integrations. Make sure you haven't added conflicting custom code or scripts that interfere with the functioning of the CMS section. You can try temporarily removing any custom code or scripts to check if the glitches persist.
4. CMS data inconsistencies: If you're experiencing glitches only in the CMS section, it's possible that there may be some inconsistencies within your CMS data. Check for any missing or improperly formatted data in your CMS collections that could be causing the issues. Pay attention to special characters, formatting, and validation rules for fields to ensure data integrity.
5. Third-party integrations: Glitches can occur when there are integration issues between Webflow and third-party tools or services you have integrated with your site. Verify if any third-party integrations, such as form submissions, external databases, or APIs, are impacting the CMS section. Temporarily disabling or reviewing the configuration of these integrations can help identify the cause of the glitches.
6. Webflow system issues: Although rare, glitches can occur on the Webflow platform itself. Check the Webflow status page or community forums to see if there are any ongoing system issues that could be affecting the CMS section. If this is the case, you may need to wait for Webflow to resolve the issue or contact their support team for assistance.
If you've exhausted the above possibilities and the glitches in the Webflow Designer and live site exclusively within the CMS section persist, it would be best to reach out to Webflow's support team directly. They can investigate your specific site's configuration and provide tailored guidance to resolve the issue.
