Is there a web dev trick to force one or all pages to refrech cache? I have a page with download links that I constantly need to update the links on. The users tell me the links are wrong, and the fix is to clear or refresh casche. I’d like to have a page load do it automaticly.

Hi @bliss-box

Yes, you can force the page to refresh the cache using these methods:

  1. Cache-Busting URLs: Append a version number or timestamp to the resource URL, like file.js?v=1.2. This makes the browser treat it as a new resource.
  2. HTTP Headers: Set HTTP headers (Cache-Control or Expires) on the server to control caching. Use Cache-Control: no-cache or must-revalidate to ensure the latest version is always fetched.
  3. Meta Tag: Add in your HTML to force cache refresh.

If you have other questions, I am willing to answer them too.

Best regards,
