On my website, which is hosted elsewhere, I need to make changes to seven pages every 10 days. Not major changes, just dates in two places.
So I make the changes and then publishing takes from 1:10 ~ 1: 15. Used to be MUCH faster.
I publish EVERY page separately because I noticed a long time ago that if I changed seven pages and then published some changes don’t “take”. So my edit time has ballooned to over 10 minutes for what used to take less than five.
The “Get Code” is now NOT WORKING…“Error Downloading Code” from two lacations and two different computers… I’m going to post this Error issue on the main page…
Just did this today using NotePad++ and updated the site. But my employees know how to work Webflow, not how to edit HTML. Webflow STILL needs to be fixed.
What happens when simple editing won’t accomplish what I need? All day job?
And now it’s not producing the code for download. I put that in another post.
There’s REAL problems right now and they need to be addressed, not worked around. I pay for the service I expect it to work.
However - Webflow seems to be (currently) dealing (or not dealing) with multiple large scale issues
that are security related. For me… usability is pre-empted by Security. Not ideal - but necessary.
I have been encountering the issues you brought for months.
So… it’s was just a suggestion to “get you over the hump” until Webflow can get their act together.
As for the price…
we pay about $900 a year for this service.
So trust me… when I say - I expect to receive a high level of service for the amount of $$$ I spend.
However, it’s 100% unacceptable to NOT be able to download the code.
They need to get this fixed soon. I’m an online marketer and we have vendors changing specs and appearances all the time.
My business is myself, my son and one other. My son knows Webflow and I have no doubt he’ll pickup HTML editing very quickly. But changing pictures and other items are a totally different kettle of fish.
THEN, when Webflow decides to allow the code to be downloaded again, you’ll need to keep a checklist of all the changes you’ve made to the HTML and apply those inside Webflow. Far from an ideal situation…
@tahiles I was not able to reproduce the issue in a new site so it may be isolated to your specific project. I’m standing by for that link so I can investigate this further for you.
Can you also please send me screenshots of the behavior you’re describing.
Thanks again for posting and sharing your Read-Only link. I have reported this issue to the team and we are investigating now. I merged your other post here as well as they appear to be related.
I will respond as soon as I have more information.
@Revolution could you elaborate on this point? How did you hear this? I haven’t heard this and am very interested to see if there is something going on. Thanks!
“There were errors downloading your site information. Please check your connections and try again.”
This is happening when “Loading Code”, AFTER the progress wheel spins for much too long. I can’t get to “Download” so it’s not my connection, it’s internal on your end.
In other words the “Errors downloading” refers to retrieving the code for zip and download.
