Very new to this but anyway


if i for example replace a image in a plugin or title or whatever the changes dont reflect to the website, as in i go to filezilla, find a file, edit it, replace it, whatever(same with editing in mybb) and the change dosent show on the website, like if i replaced a image and in file zilla and cpanel its obviously another image it still will open on the website as the unedited image.


Downloaded a plugin, deleted it and downloaded a new version with my changes to it, still the old plugin and not the changed one. only way i have been able to change 1 image was by changing the directory completly.

It's likely that your host server was slow in updating the cache for your website.

Are you using Cloudflare?

dont think its host issue since text itself changes and my wordpress updates other thigns instantly, what settings in cloud flare should be changed/ disabled?

Changed to the development mode and changes showed up, i had forgotten about cloud flare.

WordPress is different from MyBB.

Go to Cloudflare and click on the Caching Tab and do this in order.

#1 - Click on Purge Everything ( do not worry... it's only purging the cache NOT your website )

#2 - The popup will show and click on the red Purge Everything - It will take about 15 to 30 seconds depending on the speed of your internet.

#3 - On the same page, scroll down to Development Mode and click on the 'Off' to turn this 'On'. This will enable all changes to your website to show up faster.
( by default, Cloudflare will automatically turn this 'Off' after 2 hours )

Let us know if this works for you.
There are a few things that could cause this. Cloudflare Caching, Browser Caching, and Server Caching, purging MyBB and Cloudflare caches, as well as clearing your computers cache should help. If you've cleared your Cloudflare and Browser cache and are still experiencing issues run the command below on your local machine.

ipconfig /flushdns

If you encounter this again run the command below on your computer and see if it works!

ipconfig /flushdns

That command has NOTHING to do with flushing DNS from the hosting side, nor anything related to Cloudflare. 

That command is only good for local machines.

Did I say it did? No. I was offering it as the simplest way to flush DNS on Windows
