Hi there,

I have the following problem: If I edit the Footer template (Templates -> *my template* -> Footer Templates -> footer) changes don't go through to the forum. I tried editing both the default and the current template (Apart 1), even completely removed the code in the template but nothing changed. (I want to add a social network url to the footer). Also, the language selection isn't visible. (I cleared my browser cache!)
Side note: I changed the "Homename" setting and this updated, so I guess the whole codeblock is cached / not updated / whatever.

MyBB version: 1.6.9
Server: Apache 2.x, PHP 5.3.10, plain install of mybb (nothing special except some plugins and a template)
Footer code:
<br />
			<div class="bottommenu">

Are you using Cloudflare? If so, please set it to development mode when you are working on your site.
Nope, I am not, but thanks for the fast answer. I'll edit something in the OP
Try clearing your cache.
I did that, too. I forgot to put that in the description, sorry.
Do you have any "extra" caching in your .htaccess? are you caching the HTML?
I don't think so, at least I haven't installed anything like that (everything else updates fine, too. I edited my header template a moment ago and it worked flawlessly)
If you would like to PM me an admin login and link to acp I can have a look for you.
Well, whatever. I changed the template and now everything works. Thanks anyways Smile
Ok, so the reinstall of the theme helped?
