The map is black, blank, or won't load
Nearly always a stale cached copy of the page or its tiles. A hard reload usually settles it.
What's happening
The map area renders black or empty even though the project processed successfully. The usual cause is a stale cached copy of the page or its tiles, either in your browser or at the CDN edge — most likely right after a project has been republished.
What to check
- Reload the page normally first.
- Then force a full reload with Ctrl+F5 (Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac).
- Then open the same project in a private window. If it renders there, it was your cache.
How to fix it
- Hard-reload the page.
- If it renders correctly in a fresh private window, clear the site's cached data in your normal window.
Avoiding it next time
Nothing on your side — this is a caching artefact, not something you caused.
If the map is still blank in a fresh private window, contact us. That is not a cache problem.
