Where can I modify the settings in Webflow to display my desired content instead of showing the template or Webflow name (as seen in the attached screenshot)?
TL;DR
- Replace all template content in the Webflow Designer, including on static and collection pages.
- Update each page’s SEO title, meta description, and Open Graph settings.
- Customize global site settings like site name, favicon, and default SEO fields in Project Settings.
- Review and edit any reusable Symbols (e.g. nav or footer) to remove template branding.
- Republish the site and verify changes on the live version to ensure default placeholder content is removed.
You're likely seeing the Webflow default content or template placeholder when a published project hasn't been customized fully. This can appear on page titles, meta descriptions, favicon, or even visible site sections like headers or footers.
1. Check and Update Page Content in Designer
- Go to the Webflow Designer and verify you’ve replaced all template content (text, images, links) with your own.
- Ensure that elements like sections, headings, and images are not using default or placeholder content from a cloned template.
- Check both Static Pages and Collection Pages from the Pages panel.
2. Update Meta Title and Description
- Go to Page Settings (click the gear icon next to each page in the Pages panel).
- Under SEO Settings, update:
- Title Tag (this is what appears on browser tabs and search engine results).
- Meta Description to describe the page content accurately.
- Also check the Open Graph Settings to make sure they're customized with your brand's visuals and descriptions.
3. Update Webflow Site Settings (Project-Wide)
- Go to Project Settings > General tab.
- Update the Site Name — this sometimes appears in default metadata if not overwritten.
- Check the SEO tab to set the site-wide favicon, webclip image, and default title/description fields.
4. Review the Webflow Symbol or Template Components
- If your project is using reusable Symbols (like a nav or footer from the template), open the Symbol for editing and swap out any template-specific content like logos or business names.
- Be sure to unlink or update the components instead of just deleting them if you want to preserve structure.
5. Publish the Updates
- After making these changes, click Publish to Selected Domains to apply them to your live site.
- Then view the live site (not just preview in Designer) to confirm the default Webflow or template content is gone.
Summary
Check and replace all remaining placeholder content in the Designer, including page settings, SEO metadata, and Symbols. Update your site settings under Project Settings, and republish your site to reflect the changes instead of the template or Webflow branding.
