What could be the reason for some collections not working properly in my online magazine, specifically the "style & beauty" section under the "culture" tab, and the subpages under the "lifestyle" group in Webflow, even though they are set up the same as the functioning collections? Is there a limit to the number of collections allowed on the CMS plan?

It sounds like your "Style & Beauty" and "Lifestyle" CMS collections aren't functioning properly, despite being set up similarly to working collections. This could be due to collection limits on your Webflow plan, CMS structure issues, or incorrect page connections.

1. Check Webflow CMS Collection Limits

• The CMS plan has a limit of 50 Collections per project.
• Each Collection can have up to 5 Collection List elements per page.
• The total number of collection items is limited to 2,000.
• If you've reached any of these limits, collections may not function correctly.

2. Verify Collection Page URLs

• Go to Pages Panel > Collection Pages and check that the affected collections have the correct URL structure.
• Make sure the Page Slug does not conflict with another collection or static page.

3. Ensure Collection Lists Are Connected Properly

• Open the Designer and check if the CMS Collection List on the affected pages is correctly linked to the right Collection.
• Sometimes, Collection List elements may become disconnected if changes were made recently.

4. Check CMS Item Publishing Status

• Go to CMS > Collections and ensure that items in the "Style & Beauty" and "Lifestyle" Collections are actually published.
• If an item is in Draft status, it won’t appear on the live site.

5. Test Using Another Collection List

• Try adding a new Collection List to a blank page and connect it to the failing CMS collection.
• If the new Collection List works, the issue may be with your page design or filtering rules.

6. Inspect Collection Filters and Conditions

• If the affected collections use filters or conditional visibility, check if those rules unintentionally hide content.
• For example, ensure there are no filters excluding all available items.

7. Look for Script or Custom Code Issues

• If these pages use custom code or JavaScript interactions, disable them temporarily to see if they’re preventing content from loading.
• In Project Settings > Custom Code, check for conflicts affecting CMS data.

Summary

Your CMS issues could be caused by plan limits, misconfigured Collection Lists, incorrect filters, or structural conflicts. Start by checking your plan limits and Collection Page URLs, then test with a new Collection List. If the problem persists, inspect filters, publishing status, and custom code.
