How can I troubleshoot the non-functioning Script before tag, HTML Embed, and Exit-intent-pop-up elements on my Webflow homepage after cloning the website?

When troubleshooting non-functioning script elements on your Webflow homepage after cloning the website, there are a few steps you can take to identify and resolve the issue:

1. Check if the code is intact: After cloning a website, it's important to ensure that all the code, especially the script code, has been accurately copied. Open the code editor in Webflow and navigate to the "Before tag" and "HTML Embed" elements to verify that the code is there and hasn't been altered or removed during the cloning process.

2. Review script dependencies: If the scripts rely on external dependencies (such as libraries or APIs), make sure these dependencies are properly included in your cloned project. Double-check that any external URLs or references required by the scripts are correctly added and haven't been missed during the cloning process.

3. Check for script conflicts: It's possible that the cloned website may have conflicting scripts or codes that interfere with the functionality of the elements in question. Review all the scripts on your page, including those placed within the "Before tag" or HTML Embed elements, to ensure there are no conflicting instructions or duplicate scripts causing issues.

4. Verify script placement: Ensure that the "Before tag" and HTML Embed elements are placed in the correct location within your page structure. The "Before tag" element should be at the bottom of the body section, just before the closing tag, while the HTML Embed element should be placed wherever it's needed within the page structure.

5. Test in debug mode: Enable debug mode in your browser's developer console to identify any potential errors or warnings related to the scripts. These console messages can provide valuable insights into what might be causing the issue. To access the developer console, right-click on your webpage, select "Inspect" or "Inspect Element," and navigate to the "Console" tab.

6. Check script compatibility: Confirm that the script being used is compatible with Webflow and the specific elements you're using. Some scripts may not be designed to work within certain environments or may have specific requirements for functionality. Check the script's documentation or reach out to the script developer for any compatibility issues or limitations.

7. Consider custom code conflicts: If you have added custom code elsewhere in your project or used Webflow interactions that could be conflicting with the non-functioning script elements, review them for any potential conflicts. Temporarily disabling or removing these custom codes can help identify if they are causing the issue.

8. Consult the Webflow community: If you've tried all the above steps and are still facing issues, you can reach out to the Webflow community for additional support. The Webflow forum or official Webflow support channels can provide assistance from other experienced users or direct support from the Webflow team.

By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the non-functioning script elements on your cloned Webflow homepage.
