How do I quickly get an uncached version of a page?

0

If the page is only cached by your web browser, clicking the refresh button will usually load a new version. Alternatively you could clear your browser cache to get new versions of all pages and files. If the page has been cached by a public cache, eg. your ISP or a proxy server, clearing the browser cache will have little effect as you’ll just get the publicly cached version. On trick that we use is to add a question mark to the end of the URL followed by a random number. The caches see this as a new page ensuring you get the most recent version while Confluence will just ignore the question mark and the number after it. A key benefit of this approach is that only the HTML gets reloaded – all images and other files will remain cached.
