hello everyone i just started the 21 day course on the website and got to the CMS list part, now i have followed the instructor and when i drag the cms list into the section , click the settings and try to pull up the projects , it seems like i have no projects, i made 2 projects though and i have only 2 option how to save the, save as draft and que to publish. for the life of me i cant figure out why it is not working. i am still on the free version of webflow.
It sounds like the issue is that your CMS items (projects) may not be published yet, which is why they aren’t showing up in the CMS list. In Webflow, even if you create projects, they need to be published to be accessible in the CMS list. Go to the “Collections” tab, select your projects, and ensure they are marked as “Published” (not just saved as drafts or queued for publishing). If you’re on the free plan, ensure you haven’t exceeded your CMS item limit, as that could also cause issues. To share your public link, go to your project settings, enable “Share” under the General tab, and copy the generated link.
If you want those items to appear in your collection list, you want Queue to Publish. Since you have not yet published your site, you do not have Publish Now as an option.
