Troubleshooting Common Problems

Goal: Know what to do when something goes wrong.

What you will learn

  • A calm, step-by-step way to handle problems
  • What to check first for twelve common issues
  • Which actions need extra care
  • When to contact support or your developer

Stay calm and go step by step

Most website problems have simple causes: a change that wasn’t published, an old page saved in your browser, an expired card, or a renewal date that slipped by.

Use the interactive guide below. Pick your problem and follow it from the top.

Important: Before any action that could delete data, change domain settings or interrupt the live website, stop and confirm with your developer or support.

  1. 1

    Pause

    no big changes

  2. 2

    Note it

    what, where, when

  3. 3

    Screenshot

    any error

  4. 4

    Simple checks

    publish? refresh?

  5. 5

    Ask early

    developer or support

The golden rules

  1. 1Don’t make big changes while panicking.
  2. 2Write down what you saw and when.
  3. 3Take a screenshot of any error message.
  4. 4Check the simple things first.
  5. 5Ask for help early. It’s cheaper than fixing a bigger problem later.

When to contact support

If you still can’t log in, or you no longer have access to your sign-up email, contact Lovable support through the official website.

Common mistakes

Changing domain settings to “try something.”

Domain settings can take your site offline. Get help first.

Asking Lovable to “fix everything.”

Describe the exact problem, the page, and what you expected to happen.

Waiting weeks to report a broken form.

Test forms regularly and act quickly. Missed messages are missed customers.
