Google Accelerated Mobile Pages

Please help me with the guidance of clear cache from weebly website

Adam7 · ‎07-24-2018

At this time it wouldn't be possible to set up Google AMP, although this is something we're looking into adding support for. Thanks for your patience, @Jac!

Jac6 · ‎07-24-2018

could you please let me know, how to clear the cache of website

JoeH2 · ‎07-25-2018

You actually could if you hard-coded your AMP page and uploaded it in a /files/theme/amp/ directory, referencing the amp version in the header of a page (not possible on blog posts because Weebly doesn't allow you to add features to the <head> section of blog posts for some reason...), but that's a lot of work for functionality that should be available on a CMS in 2018.

Adam7 · ‎07-25-2018

That would definitely work, although I agree with you in that it would be much better and simpler for us to add this. We are working on it, although I don't know when that work would be completed.

Adam: Any updates on AMP support?

Bernadette3 · ‎10-13-2018

Not at this time, @JSS I'm very sorry we don't have more information at this time.

It is March 2019...do you know when the AMP feature will be launched? Are the Weebly developers working on this? We need some dedlines as we are considering moving away from Weebly due to a lack of important SEO features like AMP and browser caching.

If these features will be launched soon (like in the next 2-3 months) we will continue using Weebly, if not we will have to move to another option.

So please given us some feedback on this.

I just found that the only way to access a conversation on Google Accelerated Mobile Pages in this community site as well in support, is to google it outside of Weebly and you can find Weebly links to this subject. WHY is this topic being hidden in regular Weebly platform searches? It appears that people have been wanting answers since 2016.

We aren't hiding it, @bottomlines. The search function on Lithium is broken and will not display any results no matter what you search for. We've submitted a ticket, though.

I haven't heard of any additional movement on this, @REU, which doesn't mean that there hasn't been activity per se - it just means that we haven't been informed of any status changes or potential ETAs.

It's been around 3 years since AMP was introduced. Why is it that Weebly takes years to launch so many important updates? The benefit of using Weebly as a platform for professional designers and marketers has been diminishing more and more as the months go by. I for one have already removed a couple of projects from Weebly (more to come) and have decided to start others on WordPress instead. I've heard that Weebly doesn't have a dedicated development team and initially met that with a bit of skepticism but I can't seem to figure out why else everything your clients are begging for (seo upgrades, better blogging tools, the updated designer platform, forums, image library and the list keeps going) aren't being completed and no timelines are being given.

FYI - Alternatives to Weebly with superior functionality and ease of use are already available.

AdrianGraphics · ‎11-11-2019

Any updates on this? We are missing a ton of important features for ranking our sites with Weebly. Thanks for you help Adam!

Adam7 · ‎11-11-2019

Thanks for checking - I haven't heard any updates about this, although I'm going to highlight AMP to the broader team this week.

woosters · ‎01-05-2020

Can I ask the outcome of that meeting please? What is happening with AMP?

Adam7 · ‎01-05-2020

I haven't heard anything since then, @woosters, which isn't unusual per se since we highlight a number of different features all the time. I'm not aware of any plans to implement AMP at the moment, though.

xandreasx · ‎04-24-2020

Wow...i think that i will not renew the website on weebly.
It's crazy that in 2020 we can't create AMP pages
