How can I resolve the issue of over 20 redirects on one of my Webflow pages without affecting the rest of my site?

Your issue stems from more than 20 redirects on a single page, which can cause performance problems or even prevent the page from loading. This typically results from misconfigured 301/302 redirects, repeated auto-redirects via JavaScript, or CMS content conflicts.

1. Audit All Redirect Rules in Webflow

• Go to Project Settings > Hosting > Redirects.
• Look for any repeating, circular, or overlapping redirect paths, especially ones that affect the specific page's slug or URL path.
• Temporarily disable or adjust any redirect that leads back to itself (directly or indirectly).

2. Check Custom Code in Page Settings

• Open the Page Settings for the affected page.
• Review the Header and Footer Custom Code sections.
• Look for any window.location, location.href, or meta refresh tags that may be causing redirects.
• Remove or comment out any redirect-related script for testing.

3. Inspect CMS or Dynamic Content Redirects

• If the page is using a CMS Template Page, check if any CMS field (like a link field in a Collection) is directing users to another URL when viewed.
• A common scenario: a CMS page dynamically redirects to another page via a slug field that's used conditionally in code.

4. Clear Conflicting Slugs or Paths

• In Pages, see if there are duplicate slugs between static pages and CMS Collection items.
• Webflow can unintentionally redirect from a static page to a CMS page (or vice versa) if the slugs match, causing loops.
• Rename or delete one of the conflicting paths to resolve the issue.

5. Use Browser Dev Tools to Trace Redirect Chains

• Use Chrome DevTools (Network tab) to refresh the affected page and view every request.
• Look at the Status Codes (301, 302, etc.), and track how many times the URL changes.
• Identify the origin point of the loop or excessive chain.

6. Check Third-Party Scripts or Plugins

• If the page uses third-party popups, analytics tools, or tracking scripts, they may insert redirects.
• Temporarily disable these scripts (in Project Settings > Custom Code or integrations) to test page behavior.

7. Publish to Staging First

• After each change, use Webflow’s staging domain (yourproject.webflow.io) to test the page before pushing the fix live.
• This lets you isolate the issue without disrupting the rest of the site.

Summary

To fix excessive redirects on one Webflow page, audit your hosting redirect rules, remove conflicting slugs, and disable any custom code or CMS logic that causes loops. Use browser dev tools to identify where the chain starts, and always test fixes on the staging domain before going live.
