Why are changes on the Webflow domain updating correctly, but not on the linked domain? I've tried unpublishing and publishing again on the linked domain, but it didn't work.

TL;DR

If changes on your Webflow domain are updating correctly but not on the linked domain, there could be a few possible reasons for this issue. Let's explore some of the common causes and potential solutions:

1. Caching: Caching is a process that stores a copy of your website files on servers to improve performance. If your linked domain is using caching, it could be serving cached pages instead of the updated versions. To address this, you can try clearing the cache of your linked domain or configure the caching settings to ensure it fetches the latest content from your Webflow domain.

2. DNS Propagation: DNS (Domain Name System) propagation can take some time to update globally. If you recently made changes to your DNS settings when connecting your domain to Webflow, it's possible that the changes haven't propagated completely. This can cause discrepancies between the two domains. Usually, DNS propagation can take up to 24-48 hours. If it has been less than that, it's worth waiting for a bit longer.

3. Publishing Sync Issues: Sometimes, the sync between Webflow and the linked domain can have hiccups due to various factors. To troubleshoot this, you can try unpublishing and republishing your site on both the Webflow and linked domains. Additionally, ensure that both domains are correctly set up and connected within your Webflow project settings.

4. Custom Code or JavaScript Conflicts: If you have custom code or JavaScript on your site, it's possible that it's causing conflicts or preventing the changes from reflecting correctly. Review your custom code snippets and scripts to check if any issues or conflicts exist. You can try temporarily removing them to see if the updates start reflecting on the linked domain.

5. Third-Party Services: If your website relies on third-party services or APIs that interact with the content, make sure they are correctly integrated and functioning as expected. Sometimes, issues with such services can prevent updates from reflecting on the linked domain.

If none of the above solutions resolve the issue, it's advisable to reach out to Webflow support for more specific guidance. Provide them with as much detail as possible, including your project settings and the steps you've taken so far. They will be able to investigate the issue more closely and provide you with a tailored solution.
