If you are encountering a blank page when trying to insert code from CodePen into Webflow, there are a few potential solutions you can try to resolve the issue:
1. Check for Errors in the Code:
Firstly, ensure that the code you are trying to insert from CodePen is error-free. Sometimes, a single error in the code can cause the entire page to go blank. Double-check your code for any syntax errors, missing or misused tags, or any other issues that might be causing conflicts.
2. Proper Placement of Code:
Ensure that you are placing the code in the correct section of your Webflow project. For example, if you are trying to insert custom code snippets in the project settings, make sure you are placing the code in the appropriate input field or tab designated for custom code.
3. Test the Code Outside Webflow:
Copy and paste the code from CodePen into a plain HTML file outside of Webflow to see if it works correctly. This way, you can isolate whether the problem lies within Webflow or the code itself. If the code works fine outside Webflow, there might be an issue with how Webflow interprets or processes the code.
4. Use the Embed HTML Element:
Instead of copying and pasting the code directly into Webflow, try using the Embed HTML element provided by Webflow. Create a new HTML embed element on your Webflow page and paste the code from CodePen into the embed element. This can help ensure that the code is rendered correctly within the Webflow environment.
5. Adjust Code Dependencies:
CodePen often relies on external dependencies such as CSS and JavaScript libraries. Ensure that you are including these dependencies correctly in your Webflow project. This might involve adding the necessary external CSS or JavaScript files as custom code or through Webflow's project settings.
6. Contact Webflow Support:
If none of the above solutions work, it might be helpful to reach out to Webflow support directly. They have a dedicated support team that can assist you in troubleshooting the issue further. Provide them with the details of the problem, including the code you are trying to insert and any error messages you are receiving, if applicable.
By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the issue of Webflow displaying a blank page when inserting code from CodePen.
