X3 ALWAYS serves fresh pages ... If you change something from the panel, the page cache is invalidated, and new cache is created. You checked the page yourself? If you see the change, then she will also.

when my partner visited the page she saw an old version of the site.

It is unclear to me what you mean "old" version of the site. You said you added a new PAGE ... She did not visit the new page then? Sorry, I don't quite understand ... Also, did you click "REFRESH MENU" (big blue button in panel top bar) after creating the new page?

The ONLY reason anyone would see old results, would be caching processes outside the control of Imgaevue X3. It could be the server using some short-term varnish caching, it could be cloudflare, or it could even be a very special device/browser where the user has set pages to cache (normally, page documents are never cached). This is however very unusual.

If you have a link for me, let me check?

How often does imagevuex declare page changes to browsers?

X3 always serves page cached after latest change. It's still not clear to me what you mean "she saw an old version of the site." ... she was not on the new page you added? I don't see how a new page can show an old version.

What can I say? I see a screenshot, and I see the website which shows something else ... also on iPhone. You can try it yourself from iPhone and you will see that X3 always serves fresh pages (as long as you use the panel, and click "refresh menu" when required).

Why your partner sees stale information, I don't know, but this is nothing to do with X3. Maybe mobile network providers in your area do short-term proxy caching of pages (for example on edge)? Either that, or she opened the link before you had clicked "refresh menu". In either case, X3 does not (and cannot) serve old pages (or anything). Try yourself ...

Also, did your partner actually click to REFRESH the page, and not just click a link in the menu? X3 is an AJAX application, so when navigating between pages, it will NOT reload the menu.

Thank you sir!
