How can I display multi-reference field names for a CMS template in Webflow? Currently, the field is not showing as intended.

If your multi-reference field names are not displaying correctly in your CMS template in Webflow, there could be a few possible reasons and solutions. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check the field settings: Double-check that the multi-reference field is properly set up in your Webflow CMS. Go to your Collection settings, select the appropriate collection, and make sure the multi-reference field is configured correctly, including its name and options.

2. Verify field values: Confirm that the items you're referencing in the multi-reference field actually have names defined. If the referenced items don't have any names set, it will result in an empty display. Ensure that the name fields are populated for the referenced items.

3. Check your template code: It's possible that the issue lies within your CMS template's code. Inspect the code and ensure that you're using the correct field name to display the multi-reference field. For example, if your multi-reference field is named "Tags," you would need to use the appropriate code snippet in your template to display each tag's name for the referenced items.

4. Use a collection list: If you're trying to display the multi-reference field names in a dynamic format (e.g., a list of linked items), you'll need to use a collection list element in your template. Within the collection list, you can access the properties of each referenced item and display their names. Make sure that you set up the collection list within the desired context to display the multi-reference field content correctly.

5. Republish and refresh: After making any changes, republish your site and refresh the page to ensure that the updates take effect. Sometimes, issues with field display can be resolved by simply refreshing the page or clearing your browser cache.

If none of these solutions work, it may be helpful to provide more specific information or share a read-only link to your project, so that further assistance can be provided.
