Hello everyone, I am rebuilding my platform. I asked the following question before, and it worked beautifully. (A long time ago)  Please see the link I just did precisely the same process on my new board and it does not work now in the CSS. Can someone give me some feedback on this? Many thanks

Hi,

The code works fine. Please check and make sure you've inserted the CSS code correctly and placed it in the correct location. Also, ensure that all caches have been properly cleared.

You know, I have never fully understood Cache. So I just wrote an article using AI that explains the whole process so people can understand what to look for when they're on these forums. I have always been very confused by this. You can take this article below and repost it wherever it needs to go. I do not need any recognition for this. As a matter of fact, it may require some tweaking. Please review and post in an area where people can find it easily. It is beneficial. For the first time in my life, I understand entirely what cache means on all levels. Please post this clean, without my comments or anything, in a new section, and let me know if you will do this so I can check it out. It may need some tweaking, but I did my best. I do have a better understanding now.

 

Understanding Caches

A simple 1-2-3 guide anyone can understand.

Caching helps websites load faster, but it can also cause confusion when pages don’t update.
Here are the three types of cache you need to know — explained simply and clearly.


1️⃣ Browser Cache

Your computer or phone saves little copies of websites so they load faster next time.

Sometimes this causes:

  • Old versions of your site to appear

  • Changes not showing

  • Styles looking “stuck”

Easy Fix:
Clear your browser cache so it shows the new version of your site.


2️⃣ WordPress Cache

This is the cache inside WordPress itself.

WordPress or your hosting company may save old versions of pages to make things load quickly.

Sometimes this causes:

  • Menus not updating

  • Pages showing old content

  • Your theme not showing changes

Easy Fix:
Use your “Clear Cache” or “Purge Cache” button in the WordPress admin bar or in your caching plugin.


3️⃣ wpForo Cache

wpForo has its own caching system for your forum.

Here’s how to access it:

✔ Step 1: Click wpForo in the left WordPress menu

✔ Step 2: You are now on the Overview page

✔ Step 3: Scroll down until you see the big box called Forum Maintenance

Everything you need is right there — no extra menus, nothing hidden.

Inside the Maintenance box, you will see:

  • Delete All Caches → clears old forum data

  • Clean Up → removes junk the forum doesn’t need

  • Update Forums Statistic → fixes forum-wide numbers

  • Update Topics Statistic → fixes topic counts

  • Rebuild Phrases → refreshes the words wpForo uses

  • Delete Phrase Cache → removes old saved text

  • Rebuild Threads → fixes the order of messages

These buttons help your forum show the correct, updated information.


Quick Summary

Cache Type What It Does When to Clear It
Browser Cache Saves pages on your device When you see old or wrong pages
WordPress Cache Saves pages on your website When site updates don’t appear
wpForo Cache Saves forum data When forum changes don’t appear
