How to clear your browser cache

If your website ever fails to show the latest changes you made, it's likely that your browser cache is preventing you from seeing the latest updates.

Your browser automatically saves local copies of websites you frequently visit, so it doesn’t have to re-download things every time you go there. But, if you’ve recently made changes to your site, your browser is likely to show you the old files it downloaded previously, rather than re-downloading the latest files.

What you need to do is force your browser to download the latest files. Below are instructions on how to do this, depending on your operating system and browser:

1. ⌘ + ⌥ + E
2. Click OK
3. Refresh the page

1. ⇧ + ⌘ + Delete
2. Check Empty the cache
