🔍 What Is This Error?
A Generation Failed error in Website Studio means the platform was unable to complete the build process for a page. This can happen when creating new pages such as Thank You pages, landing pages, or other custom page types. In some cases, the error persists even after retrying.
⚙️ Initial Steps to Try
Before escalating, try the following general steps:
- Hard-refresh your browser. Press Ctrl + Shift + R (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + Shift + R (Mac) to clear cached assets and reload the page fresh.
- Clear browser cache and cookies. Cached data can interfere with Studio build requests. Clear your browser cache, then reload the platform.
- Try a different browser. Switch to a modern browser such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
- Check your internet connection. A dropped or unstable connection mid-generation can cause a build to fail. Switch networks or disable a VPN if one is active.
- Wait and retry after a few minutes. Temporary backend issues can cause isolated generation failures. Wait a short period and attempt the build again.
🚀 When to Escalate
If the Generation Failed error persists after trying the steps above across different browsers and sessions, this is likely a backend issue that requires investigation by our support team. When reaching out, please have the following ready:
- The name of the affected project in Website Studio
- The exact error message displayed (screenshot if possible)
- The type of page you were attempting to generate (e.g. Thank You page, landing page)
- The timestamp of when the error first occurred and how many times you have retried
