Auto Forced Refresh

Post by Praxandros »

Hi everybody.

Is there an option or a code to force refresh recently uploaded pages/subpages?

Thank you all for your help.

In Page Properties > Meta Tags, you can add this to the User Defined section:

<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0" />

This should make the page refresh each time it is loaded in the browser and for its cache to be cleared.

Yeah, this happens a lot when browsers hang onto old versions. Easiest fix is to add a little version number to your page or file like mypage.html?v=5. That usually forces a reload. You can also clear your browser cache manually, but that doesn’t help for other users unless you control the caching rules on your server

You can also add this to your .htaccess file on the server:

Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_headers.c>
    Header set Cache-Control "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"
    Header set Pragma "no-cache"
    Header set Expires 0
</IfModule>
