Did you create the Layout after dragging in the clone block? If so, delete the clone block and drag in a new one. The pop-up menu should refresh with the layout and containers listed. If that doesn’t solve it, you may need to contact Support.

You could also try [hard refreshing](https://fabricdigital.co.nz/blog/how-to-hard-refresh-your-browser-and-clear-cache#:~:text=Chrome%20and%20Windows%3A,down%20Ctrl%20and%20press%20F5.) your browser tab.

Nope, tried hard refreshing also, and tried using a different browser

For some reason I have containers listed:

This is weird, Can you make it for me in the project? my project is public. Could it be a pro feature? if so that would be weirder

I’m not sure which project of yours that is but I remixed a couple of yours and was able to see containers from the clone block:

I have a Pro license but I don’t think you need that to clone containers. I’m fairly certain you don’t. You may need to contact Support to have them help figure this out.

I need this to be fixed as soon as possible, I hope support is fast

You could also for the time being just get the original ParkingApp not the copy and set the container in the clone, thank you
