The Refresh Button

Overview

After you make a series of edits, you should click the ‘Save’ button to save your progress. You should be able to see your edits in the public version of your page, but sometimes the browser gets stuck. In these cases, you can use the ‘Refresh’ button to reload the page and make your edits visible.

Here you can see the location of the ‘Refresh’ button on the public version of a page (left) and in the visual editor (right).

     

Keyboard Shortcuts

If your browser is stuck or your screen freezes and you cannot click on the ‘Refresh’ button, you may need to do a ‘hard refresh’ from your keyboard.

The keyboard shortcuts for a hard refresh are as follows:

  • pc: shift-ctrl-r
  • mac: shift-command-r
