There could be several reasons why the images and titles are not updating on the published Webflow site, even after republishing and ensuring that the site has been published. Let's explore some possible causes and their solutions:
1. Browser caching: Sometimes, browsers cache or store certain website files to improve loading speed. This can result in outdated content being displayed. To fix this issue, try clearing your browser cache or open the website in incognito mode to bypass the cache.
2. CDN caching: If you're using Webflow's Content Delivery Network (CDN) to serve your assets, images, and files, they may be cached on the CDN nodes. To update your images and titles, you can try clearing the CDN cache. In Webflow, you can access this option by going to the "Hosting" settings and clicking on the "Clear CDN cache" button.
3. Publishing issues: It's possible that there were publishing errors or delays that prevented the updated images and titles from being pushed to the live site. In this case, you can try republishing your site, making sure to wait for the publishing process to complete before checking the live site.
4. Incorrect file references: Double-check that the images and titles you're trying to update are referenced correctly in your Webflow project. Ensure that the file names and paths match the updated versions. A common mistake is forgetting to update links or references when you change the file names or folder structure within Webflow.
5. CMS collections: If the images and titles are part of a dynamic CMS collection, make sure you have properly updated the content within the CMS, and the collection is correctly linked to the relevant pages or elements on your site.
6. JavaScript issues: If you are using custom JavaScript code that dynamically loads or modifies the images and titles, there might be an issue with the code itself. Check for any code errors or conflicts that could prevent the updates from taking effect. Consider testing your site without the custom code to determine if it is causing the problem.
If none of the above solutions work, it might be helpful to reach out to Webflow support or the Webflow community for further assistance. Provide them with specific details about the issue, including steps to reproduce it, so they can better understand and troubleshoot the problem.
