If a page or function on the web store is not displaying/behaving as expected, here are some general steps you can take to try to troubleshoot the issue.
Check from a different browser
There are times when a browser's cache can affect the functionality of a site. A browser's add-on extensions as well might interfere. Trying from a different browser, one that you rarely use, is a good first step.

Check from a different network
On occasion, a device's network might be responsible. To rule that out, try visiting the page from a device connected through a different network (such as a cell phone) and try to recreate the issue.
Review the browser's console
If there are errors occurring behind-the-scenes, oftentimes those are logged in the browser's console and can provide clues as to what may be occurring. Locating your browser's console can vary a little depending on the browser. But usually you:
- Right-click on the page
- Select "Inspect" from the list of options provided
- From the area that appears, click on the "Console" tab
Attempt to recreate the issue with the console open to see if any errors are logged.
Review the browser's network tab
Right-click on the webpage and press "Inspect" to open the browser's tools. Navigate to the Networking tab and reload the page. Check to see that all files are loading with a status of 200 (which is good). If your issue is display-related, you might find that a CSS file is loading with a status of 404 or 500. Or you might notice that a particular file is taking a very long time to load, which will help in diagnosing the issue.
