How to do a hard refresh for new weeks to appear

by Kat - The Organised Housewife

I give my site instructions to give you access to the new weeks content on a particular date, this is usually an automatic process. But as technology is so hard to predict some computers can lag and not realise you have been granted access to the new content.  Please do a hard refresh to clear the ‘cache/cookies’ in your computer, telling your computer there is new content for you to read.

Here is steps on how to do a hard refresh on the various browsers and your smart phone/tablet.

Internet Browsers

Chrome

Quick hard refresh can be done by using the following short cut keys

Windows/Linux:

  1. Hold down Ctrl and click the Reload button.
  2. Or, Hold down Ctrl and press F5.
  3. just open the Chrome Dev Tools by pressing F12. Once the chrome dev tools are open, just right click on the refresh button and a menu will drop down. This menu gives you the option of doing a hard refresh, or even clearing the cache and do a hard refresh automatically.
