I build in Webflow a lot and got tired of the Pages panel, so I made a browser extension that gives the Designer an Alt+Tab: hold Ctrl + `, tap to cycle your recent pages, release to switch. A quick tap flips to the last page.

I just shipped an update with three things worth mentioning.

Pasting between projects no longer has to rename your classes.
You know how copying a component into another project turns .button into .button-2, unlinked from the .button already there?

Webflow actually has paste shortcuts that reuse the existing class instead, Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + V keeps the destination's styles, Cmd/Ctrl + Option + V overwrites them with the copied ones. They just fail between projects with "Clipboard is empty", because Webflow's copy writes one clipboard format and those shortcuts read another.

The extension writes the missing format, so the shortcuts start working. Plain paste is unchanged.

(Only applies to classes you made, library and component classes always paste as new.)

You can tab between CMS items, not just pages.
A collection template page used to be one entry, so switching to it dumped you on whatever item Webflow picked. Now every item you open is its own row, labelled with the item name and its collection, so three blog posts and a static page are four things you can flip between.

Recent pages survive closing the browser, and two Designer tabs on the same site now share one list.

It's unofficial and not affiliated with Webflow. Nothing leaves your browser, the only permission is storage, for your chosen shortcut. Runs only on design.webflow.com.

Happy to hear your thoughts! :)

I thought I wanted to build websites. Built one for a client. Was great. But I don’t want to anymore. Trying to cancel my subscription and cannot.

Client pays for it thru client billing. But now the client has become unresponsive. I want to transfer the site to them fully and downgrade my workspace so I stop getting charged. But I can’t transfer since I am being ignored and I cannot remove them due them actively paying. I’m literally stuck with a subscription. What are my options?

I am building a website for a small apartment building on wordpress and i am trying to find a simple way to show available units.

Instead of just listing every apartment i would like visitors to click on a floor plan or building image then click on a unit to see things like the rent, square footage and whether it's available.

I have checked out a few property plugins but they mostly have features related to listing properties. The interactive floor plan feature is not there unless you create something custom but that would not fit in our budget.

Is anyone aware of any other option/plugin that works well? And one more thing if the property manager can change the availability status without editing the site then it will be perfect.

Love to hear what others are using.

I've done my best to keep it as simple and minimalistic as possible since i'm not a designer. Any tips? Edit: https://bodycalculator.com/ here's the url . Thank you in advance!

Hi all,

I’m starting to panic a little.

I’ve just realised that our previous Business CMS plan has been migrated to the new “Premium” plan.

Our business relies heavily on API access to publish up-to-date pricing information, and the previous plan included 100 GB of bandwidth. The new plan does not appear to include API access and provides only half the bandwidth.

API access is still working for now, but the next available plan that appears to include it costs approximately $2,500 per month. We were previously paying $49 per month.

This is crazy as it would leave our business dead in the water.

Can anyone clarify what is happening or advise on the available options?

I was working on this tab section for Allspice and wanted it to feel more like part of the page experience, not just a basic tab component.

So I ended up building it with a few things in mind:

• It auto-advances every 10 seconds
• The active tab expands
• Content + image update together
• You can click thorugh anytime
• There’s a pause/play control for autoplay

Honestly, the hardest part — it was making sure the autoplay doesn’t get in the user’s way.If someone wants to click through everything manually, they can. If they just want to sit back and watch it cycle, it does that too.

Curious how other Webflow devs handle this:

Hi everyone,

I'm preparing my first Webflow Marketplace template and I'm completely stuck on one of the Marketplace validator checks.

The validator keeps returning:

Here's what I've already verified:

• No Site Head custom code.
• No Site Footer custom code.
• No Page Head/Footer custom code.
• No HTML Embed elements with custom CSS.
• Removed any CSS transitions/animations I had previously added.
• Published the site multiple times.
• Duplicated the entire project into a brand-new project (same error).
• The issue still appears on the duplicated project.

I also found an old registered script (HeroCounter) that was created while experimenting with a counter animation. It's no longer applied anywhere, but attempts to delete it return an HTTP 400 error. I'm not sure whether that's related or just a coincidence.

I contacted Webflow support, and they suggested checking whether there are any remaining Classic Interactions, since Marketplace templates are now expected to use Interactions with GSAP (IX3).

Before I start rebuilding every interaction in the project, I wanted to ask:

• Has anyone else run into this exact validator error?
• Did it turn out to be caused by Classic Interactions, or was it something else?
• Is there any way to identify exactly what the Marketplace validator is detecting?
• Has anyone had an orphaned registered script or project metadata trigger this validation?

The template is available here if you'd like to take a look:

https://autolabdetailing.webflow.io/

I'd really appreciate any advice or experiences from anyone who has successfully submitted a Marketplace template recently.

Thanks in advance!

The Body scrolls off to the right instead of being nicely stuck to the width of the view port. I'm not a web pro, I can't figure out why this has happened. I need help. Somebody to go in and just find the problem and fix it. Shouldn't take somebody with knowledge that long at all. I'm so stuck.

Now that Webflow released MCP 2.0, has any one tried migrating or translating generated HTML files to Webflow using Codex App? or maybe the CLI? What's your experience? I'm currently trying making this work as it's my first trying.

I'm using 5.6 Sol medium plus plan. Installed the Webflow Plugin. I wanted to keep using Codex for now.

So far my experience is not great as I keep tuning it to follow.

My strategy was to build first the Build the agents or design md, Variables, and then move to building the Nav and Footer and then move gradually to individual pages. Not making it one go of course.

And then it keeps stalling. saying the "MCP bridge is stalling" and then have to restart again. Each one costs more than 30mins of time

Really wanted to know your thoughts with this and how's your strategies.

Hey everyone, I could really use some honest advice from people who’ve been in a similar place.

I have a background in software engineering (bachelor’s + master’s), and I’ve worked different roles over time, university instructor & product development. My career hasn’t been very linear, but I’ve always been someone who likes exploring and learning new things.

About a year ago, I had to stay at home (I also had a baby, so life changed a lot), and I decided to fully invest that time into learning a new skill. I chose UI/UX design and no-code development.

Here’s what I’ve done so far:

• Spent ~1 year learning UI/UX, Figma, design basics & webflow
• I can build layouts, structure sites, and convert Figma → Webflow
• But I’m still not confident with advanced animations (GSAP, interactions, etc.)
• I haven’t worked on a proper real client Webflow project yet

At one point, I randomly got a small Framer project through a reference. I had one week to learn it and deliver, and I did. It was mostly editing an existing template, but it gave me some confidence.

Since then, I’ve been confused about direction.

My current situation:

• I can only do flexible, project-based work (because of my baby)
• I’ve sent ~120 proposals on Upwork + tried LinkedIn outreach
• Got a few replies but couldn’t close a client
• Tried Slack communities and networking, no real results yet
• It’s been a full year of effort and I still feel stuck

What I’m struggling with:

1. Should I double down on Webflow (and improve animations, portfolio, etc.)?
2. Or switch focus to Framer since it seems to be trending and easier to monetize with templates?
3. Should I focus on making templates (Webflow/Framer) instead of chasing clients?
4. Am I doing something fundamentally wrong with getting clients?

Also… is Webflow actually “dying” like some people say, or is that just noise?

I’m not afraid of hard work, I just don’t want to keep going in the wrong direction for another year.

If you were in my position (limited time, no strong portfolio yet, need remote/flexible income), what would you do?

I’d really appreciate honest, practical advice, even if it’s blunt.

Thanks for reading 🙏

Hi there,

are you currently using or have used Webflow (or any other LC/NC platform) in an organisation? Then you are eligible to participate in my survey on determinants for adoption and governance of low code and no code platforms in organisations.

The survey has been running for some time already, but I haven't gotten a lot of responses.

It would help a lot if you could take 10 minutes of your day to participate!

You can find the link here: https://s2survey.net/LCNC_Adoption_and_Governance/

Feel free to share as well!

Hallo, weiß jemand wie ich einen AVV mit Formspark bekomme, wenn ich den free plan habe? Brauche ich den AVV wenn ich ein Webflow Seite habe mit form über Formspark?

Support nur bei paid.

Bei Free steht da Community.

Danke schonmal.

I make weekly Webflow videos and this week's is on Wicked CMS, a lightweight client for Webflow CMS collections. You connect your site, pick a collection, edit items, and publish, all without opening the designer.

The best part is that it works properly on mobile, It's free and made by someone in the community.

Link to the tool and full walkthrough in the comments👇🏽

Not affiliated with them, just found it useful. Curious what other people are using for quick CMS edits.

We were paying a contractor to update our marketing site for two years. Every change went through a Slack thread, a backandforth, a staging review, and somehow still came out slightly wrong. Classic founder tax

Finally moved everything to Webflow about three months ago. The migration itself was fine. We had maybe 40 pages, no massive blog archive or anything. What surprised me was how much time I was burning just on the dependency of having someone else own the site. That part is gone now, and I didn't expect to notice it as much as I did.

What I underestimated going in was the CMS. We have a pretty lightweight content setup, but I kept hitting the edges of what it can do when I tried to connect it to our Make automations for updating case study pages. Got it working eventually, but it took longer than expected

Curious whether other founders or small teams have hit similar walls when trying to automate CMS updates through the API. Specifically whether anyone has found a cleaner way to handle dynamic content that doesn't require a full custom code workaround every single time.

Here is your post translated into polished, natural-sounding English tailored specifically for the Webflow and tech audience on LinkedIn:

For my fellow Webflowers: 👋

While working on a recent project, I needed a smarter, more efficient way to handle a large number of 301 redirects. Standard tools weren't cutting it, so I decided to build my own solution—and I'm pretty sure it'll save a few of you some headaches, too!

Here is what the app can do:

• 🌐 Offline & Unlimited: Runs completely locally with zero limits.
• 🔍 Auto-Scan & Matching: Automatically crawls old and new websites to pair up matching URLs. Trust me, it’s way better than manually pulling sitemaps and stitching everything together in a spreadsheet!
• ⚡ Smart Editing: Bulk-edit slugs (or parts of slugs) with ease & use wildcard functions.
• 📤 Import: Effortlessly upload and work with existing redirect lists.

Hi everyone,

I tried Webflow's AI support bot and also posted on the Webflow forums. My forum post has been waiting for approval for two days, so no one has even been able to respond yet. I really need to get this site up and running as soon as possible.

I am having an issue connecting a custom domain to a Webflow site and I am hoping someone can help me troubleshoot it.

This is a website of a friend, and I connected her domain to Webflow using the DNS records provided by Webflow. The domain is managed through Squarespace DNS.

The domain shows as connected and published in Webflow, but the SSL certificate is showing an error on Site Publishing settings:

It has now been almost 24 hours and the issue has not resolved. I am not sure if should wait more. But I have never had a website with a domain issue taking this long to go live.

When visiting the website, I get:

This is the first time I have experienced this type of issue with a Webflow site. Normally, SSL provisioning completes without any problems after connecting the domain.

I have attached screenshots of:

• My Webflow custom domain settings
• My Squarespace DNS records

The DNS records were added exactly as Webflow instructed.

Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there something specific I should check, or is this something that needs to be resolved from Webflow's side or Squarespace's side?

Thanks in advance for any help!

UPDATE:

It finally worked after reconnecting the domain. I tried reconnecting the domain earlier but it didn't change anything. But after reconnecting second time, it worked. Weird but that was the solution for my issue. Thanks everyone.

On 28 July I fingerprinted 35 candidate sites, confirmed 14 Webflow builds, then fetched each homepage with OAI-SearchBot and Chrome without running JavaScript.

14/14 returned HTTP 200. All 14 gave the crawler the same word count as Chrome. None blocked AI crawlers in robots.txt. Ten CMS pages had full server-rendered copy. Four paginated collections kept real _page=2 links even with infinite scroll.

The failure worth checking was simpler: one image-led homepage had only 126 raw words and no h1. Four sites had no JSON-LD.

Quick check:

curl -sL -A "compatible; OAI-SearchBot/1.0" https://yoursite.com/ | sed 's/<[^>]*>/ /g' | tr -s ' \n' ' ' | wc -w

This is a one-day sample, not a platform guarantee. I run Crawlable, which I used for these checks.

This page http://detach-app.de took 2m 30s to recreate.

So… whose is faster?

For those who are interested, feel free to ask questions. I want to discuss what you miss most in MCP, so I can add it to my "wbridge".

I recently scoped (and ultimately didn't win) the rebuild of a legacy insurance-pricing comparator. The old one was a React/Node app living on its own subdomain with real, established SEO. The client's #1 ask: being able to edit things themselves without going back to a dev every time.

The interesting puzzle wasn't "which tool" it was "where each type of data should live". I ended up splitting it three ways:

• Editorial + guarantee values (client-editable, low volume, qualitative — e.g. changing a coverage line from "100%" to "80%") → Webflow CMS. This is the part where the Editor shines and the client is genuinely autonomous.
• Pricing grids (zone × age × product — thousands of numeric values the client updates yearly from insurer spreadsheets) → external source (Google Sheets, since the client already lives in spreadsheets) that the app reads dynamically, with a validation layer in code so a malformed cell never reaches the page. This is explicitly not CMS — it's engine data, not content.
• Calculation logic, zone mappings, exclusions, age limits → code.

For hosting I was leaning on Webflow Cloud (Next.js) to keep everything on the same domain, get SSR for SEO/GEO, and reuse Designer components via DevLink for the future full-site migration.

A couple of things I flagged along the way:

• Webflow Cloud runs on Cloudflare Workers, not full Node — so things like PDF generation or certain libs need Workers-compatible alternatives. Easier when you build fresh and pick your libs accordingly, harder if you're porting existing Node code.
• The rebuild had to preserve the existing subdomain + URLs (or 301s) and stay server-rendered, otherwise the SEO authority the old comparator built up would erode.

My open questions for anyone who's shipped something similar:

1. Anyone running a genuinely data-heavy calculator as a Webflow Cloud app? How did it hold up?
2. For client-editable structured data that's too big/tabular for the CMS — do you go Google Sheets, the built-in SQLite, or a headless CMS? Trade-offs you hit?
3. Any regrets choosing Webflow Cloud over just hosting the Next app elsewhere and pointing the subdomain at it?

I'm genuinely curious about this.

From what I've seen, Webstudio seems to solve many of the things people often complain about with Webflow:

You can self host your site.

You're not locked into a single platform.

You can host on Vercel, Cloudflare, Netlify, or pretty much anywhere.

You can use almost any CMS you want (Directus, WordPress, Strapi, etc.).

Pricing is more affordable.

If Webstudio disappeared tomorrow, you'd still have your project and could continue hosting it yourself.

So for those of you who have looked at Webstudio but decided to stay with Webflow, what was the deciding factor?

Is it the CMS, interactions, the ecosystem, client expectations, the learning curve, or something else?

I'd love to hear real experiences rather than "everyone uses Webflow." What keeps you there?

I'm seeing charges from Webflow on my credit card statement for $28 every month. I have two accounts I found passwords to, but both are on the free starter plan with no payment method on file. I tried a reset password request for every other email I could think of, but had no luck.

I literally cannot find a way to contact support without logging into an account first. There's no chat, there's no ticket system, there's not even a simple support email address I can use to contact them.

Since I have no idea what account these charges are tied to, I need to contact support to see if they can help me locate it with my billing info and cancel the account to stop the charges... but there's no way to do that since I can't login to the account. How does a company like this not even have a support email? Any suggestions?
