PLEASE NOTE: If you are making a lot of changes to your webpage view the admin log in you may need to clear your cache every once in a while.

 

Why do you need to clear your cache?

To shorten page load times, Web browsers cache most of the content that appears on the webpage, saving a copy of the webpage's content on the device's hard drive. This way, the next time the user loads the page, most of the content is already stored locally and the page will load much more quickly. If changes have been made this can sometimes load up an old version of the webpage for you.
