OK, It must be me... this app can't be this terrible for everybody...
TL;DR - trying to save different animations for desktop vs tablet/mobile. But getting anything to save ends being a different route each time through saving the timeline (with confirmation it's saved), saving Oxygen, Updating the page in WP, refreshing WP, Logging out and back into WP, refreshing motion.page, closing all windows then logging out and back into Hostinger... on both Chrome and Firefox. At this point I'm going to start videoing my forehead to see which wrinkles were showing the last time motion.page ACTUALLY saved the timeline. What's the magic sauce here?
Now for the long story...
I got my desktop version of the site looking pretty good. But the animations were really bad on mobile. Weird page shifting, etc. So I gave up on them. I've been able to just cut most of them, leaving me without animations on mobile, and at the expense of one of my desktop animations (I can't figure out why it behaves differently now... the other 2 are the same and are unchanged).
Finally, I figured out the Scale animation was causing the canvas to expand, giving me a large blank/white margin on the right on mobile. Ok, fine - I'll just cut out that animation on mobile, too (leaving me with none - is this a thing? Is motion.page just broken for mobile?). BUT... Getting the animation with for the tablet/mobile breakpoints to save correctly has been impossible. It just won't save correctly. Every time, everything I've tried, when I bring it back up, something has changed. But on the actual site, nothing has changed.
So where am I going wrong?
Suggestions? Tips? Videos? Somewhere to start to figure this out?
Thank you, in advance!
