What could be the reason for some collections not working properly in my online magazine, specifically the "style & beauty" section under the "culture" tab, and the subpages under the "lifestyle" group in Webflow, even though they are set up the same as the functioning collections? Is there a limit to the number of collections allowed on the CMS plan?
If you're experiencing issues with specific collections not working properly in your online magazine, there could be a few possible reasons for this. Let's explore some troubleshooting steps:
1. Collection Settings: Double-check the settings of your "style & beauty" section and the subpages under the "lifestyle" group. Ensure that the collection settings, such as the name, slug, and template, are correctly configured and consistent with the functioning collections.
2. Template Structure: Verify that the template used for these collections is set up correctly. Compare it with the template used by the functioning collections and ensure all necessary elements, classes, and bindings are in place. Check for any missing or misconfigured dynamic fields on the template that may be causing issues with the content display.
3. Content Population: Check the entries in the "style & beauty" section and the subpages under the "lifestyle" group. Make sure they have the necessary fields filled out and the content is properly structured. Also, confirm if the collections have any filters or conditions that could be hiding or excluding certain entries from displaying.
4. Dynamic List/Link Settings: Inspect the dynamic lists or dynamic link settings used to display the collections' content. Ensure that they are correctly connected to the respective collections and pulling the data as intended. Check for any potential filters, sorting, or limits set on the dynamic lists that may affect the content display.
5. Publishing and Cache: Clear your browser cache and ensure that you have published any recent changes to your website. Sometimes, cached versions of the website can cause display issues for new or modified collections. Also, try accessing your website on different browsers and devices to see if the issue persists.
Regarding your question about the limit to the number of collections allowed on the CMS plan, Webflow offers different plans with varying limits on collections. The CMS plan allows up to 2,000 collection items, but there is no specific limit on the number of collections you can have. However, it's worth noting that the performance of your website can be affected if you have an excessive number of collections and collection items. Always ensure that your collections are organized, optimized, and efficiently structured to maintain optimal performance.
If you've tried these troubleshooting steps and are still experiencing issues with your collections, you may want to reach out to Webflow support for further assistance. They can investigate your specific site setup and help identify the root cause of the problem.
