#### **Issue 2: Wrong File Path**
**Symptoms**: App doesn't load or shows errors
**Solution**: Verify main file path is `frontend/app.py`

#### **Issue 3: Missing Environment Variables**
**Symptoms**: App loads but shows demo data
**Solution**: Add FRED_API_KEY to Streamlit Cloud secrets

**Symptoms**: App shows old code
**Solution**: Verify Git branch is set to `main`

### **Verification Steps:**

#### **1. Check GitHub Repository**
- Go to [https://github.com/ParallelLLC/FREDML](https://github.com/ParallelLLC/FREDML)
- Verify latest commit shows "Add version 2.0.1 indicator"
- Check that `frontend/app.py` contains the version banner

#### **2. Check Streamlit Cloud Configuration**
- Main file path: `frontend/app.py`
- Git branch: `main`

### **Last Resort Solutions:**

#### **Option 1: Delete and Recreate**
1. Delete current Streamlit Cloud app
2. Create new deployment from `ParallelLLC/FREDML`
3. Set main file path to `frontend/app.py`

#### **Option 2: Check for Large Files**

- Provide deployment logs and repository URL

### **Prevention Tips:**

1. **Always force redeploy** after major changes
2. **Check deployment logs** regularly
3. **Use version indicators** to verify updates
4. **Test locally first** before pushing to GitHub
