If the diagram cannot be rendered, check its syntax in the code editor. Preview support depends on the editor’s Mermaid renderer; a diagram that works in your website may use syntax the editor does not preview.
Mermaid preview in Prosefly does not enable Mermaid on your website. Your existing website build needs its own diagram support. Check the website preview before publishing a diagram you have not used there before.
