How can I fix the issue of the CMS design layout in Webflow where the same view is not displayed for collection lists with item styles and dynamic sizes?

If you're facing an issue with your CMS design layout in Webflow, specifically where the same view is not displayed for collection lists with different item styles and dynamic sizes, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this problem.

1. Check your collection list settings:
Start by reviewing the settings for your collection list elements. Ensure that you have configured them correctly and selected the appropriate collection to populate the list. Make sure the list is set to display all items and that any necessary filters or sorting options are configured correctly.

2. Check your collection item styles:
Next, examine the styles applied to your collection item. Ensure that you have created separate item styles for each unique layout or variation you want to display within your collection list. Double-check that you haven't unintentionally applied the same style across different items.

3. Understand dynamic sizing:
Dynamic sizing allows your collection items to adjust their height based on the content within them. If your collection items have varying heights, it can lead to inconsistent layouts within the list. To address this, you can either set a fixed height for your collection items, or utilize Webflow's flexbox or grid layout systems to create a consistent structure for your collection items.

4. Utilize conditional visibility:
Webflow's conditional visibility feature allows you to show or hide elements based on certain conditions. If you have specific layouts or styles that should be applied to certain items within your collection list, you can utilize conditional visibility to achieve that. For example, you could show a specific element or apply different styles based on certain field values within your CMS items.

5. Test your layout on different devices:
Sometimes, the discrepancy in layouts might be device-specific due to responsive settings. Make sure to test your design on multiple devices and screen sizes to see if the layout inconsistency persists across different breakpoints. If it does, you may need to adjust your responsive settings or create separate styles specifically for different screen sizes.

If you have followed these steps and the issue still persists, it might be helpful to seek additional assistance from the Webflow community or support team. Providing specific details about your setup, including screenshots or a read-only link to your project, can help others better understand the problem and provide more targeted solutions.
