Most web visitors immediately see your web content updates. However, if you visit campbell.edu pages often (daily), you may not immediately see the web updates or your WordPress admin bar due to page caching. Below are steps you can take to be sure you can see the updates.

Step 1: Refresh/reload your browser

If you see old content after edits have been made, we suggest that you reload/refresh your browser to make the new content appears. This often fixes the issue.

If refreshing your browser does not make your content updates or admin bar appear, continue to Step 2.
