UTM Cache

We use caching to ensure UTM sites are performing efficiently. For the public pages, invalidated cache tags are purged every five minutes, which means that there can be a delay between the time you update your site and when it appears to the public (ie, viewing the site/page when you are not logged in).

The back end of the site is not cached. You will always see your changes immediately if you are logged in.

It is recommended to wait at least 10 mins before testing for your content in incognito mode or a different browser with no previous visits of the site. This is because the your browser also caches the website and you may not see the changes without first performing a hard refresh.

 

Browser Cache

The browser stores copies of websites you visit locally for load efficiency. Loading a website locally is much faster than downloading the website each time you visit it. This is the reason previously visited websites load faster than when you first visited it.

The browser storing cache means that sometimes changes made to the website aren't always visible to you until you perform a hard refresh

A hard refresh not only reloads the page, it also clears the cache so it loads and reflects the most recent version of the site.

 

How to perform a hard refresh

There are multiple ways to perform a hard refresh to clear your browser cache depending on what OS you are on, and which browser you are using.
