Browser problems can prevent you from properly viewing or editing your site. Follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve common browser-related issues:

Basic Checks:

  • Use a supported, up-to-date browser version
  • Enable cookies and JavaScript
  • Reset browser zoom (Ctrl + 0 on PC, ⌘ + 0 on Mac)

Test Alternative Access:

  • Try a different browser
  • Use private/incognito mode
  • Access from another device or network
  • Test on a different internet connection

Clear & Reset:

  • Clear browser cache
  • Disable browser extensions
  • Restart your router/modem
  • Check DNS settings for domain issues

Network Issues:

  • Verify SSL settings if seeing security warnings
  • Adjust firewall settings if on company network
  • Ensure your connection is stable

If problems persist after trying these steps, document:

  • Which browser you're using
  • Steps already attempted
  • Screenshots of the issue
  • Error messages received

For domain-specific problems, verify your DNS settings and third-party domain connections. SSL issues require separate troubleshooting steps.

Remember to mention which solutions you've already tried when contacting support for faster resolution of your issue.

Key Tips:

  • Private browsing helps test visitor view
  • Disabled extensions often resolve display issues
  • Network resets can fix persistent problems
  • Screenshots help support diagnose issues faster

Related issues may require checking:
