Webflow sync, pageviews & more.
NEW

Have you also experienced problems with saving changes in Webflow? I have encountered an issue where my work was not saved, even though I made sure to save multiple times. This happened on both a test project and the actual project. Has anyone else had a similar experience while using Webflow on Chrome?

TL;DR
  • Common Causes: Browser cache, network issues, extensions, multiple tabs, or Webflow server problems.
  • Fixes: Check internet connection, refresh Webflow, clear cache, disable extensions, use incognito mode, log out/in, switch browsers, check Webflow status, or contact support.

1. Common Causes of Webflow Not Saving Changes

There are several reasons why Webflow may not save your changes correctly, even when you manually attempt to do so:

  • Browser Cache Issues – Stored cache may interfere with Webflow’s autosave functionality.
  • Network Connectivity Problems – A weak or unstable internet connection can prevent changes from syncing.
  • Browser Extensions – Some Chrome extensions (e.g., ad blockers or privacy-focused extensions) may disrupt Webflow’s saving process.
  • Multiple Tabs Open – Editing the same project in multiple tabs can lead to conflicts.
  • Webflow Server Issues – Rarely, Webflow may experience temporary server outages that impact saving.

2. How to Fix Webflow Saving Issues

Try these troubleshooting steps to resolve the problem:

  • Check Your Internet Connection – Ensure your connection is stable by running a speed test.
  • Refresh Webflow (CMD + R / CTRL + R) – Reload the page and check if changes persist.
  • Clear Browser Cache – In Chrome, go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Clear browsing data, then clear cached images/files.
  • Disable Chrome Extensions – Temporarily disable all extensions (chrome://extensions) and check if saves work.
  • Use Incognito Mode – Open Webflow in an incognito window (CTRL + SHIFT + N in Chrome) to eliminate extension conflicts.
  • Logout and Log Back In – Sometimes, signing out and then signing back in can resolve session-related issues.
  • Try a Different Browser – Open Webflow in Safari, Firefox, or Edge to check if Chrome is causing the issue.
  • Check Webflow Status – Visit Webflow’s status page to see if there's a known issue.
  • Contact Webflow Support – If none of the above steps work, reach out to Webflow’s support for further assistance.

Summary

Webflow not saving changes can occur due to browser issues, internet problems, or server-related bugs. Try clearing cache, disabling extensions, and testing in incognito mode to identify the cause. If the issue persists, check Webflow’s status page or reach out to support.
