I have been making changes to my style.css files for my wordpress sites. It appears my changes are visible on other computers. However on my MAC OS X the changes do not appear to show on Firefox. I can see the changes fine on Safari (on my MAC) I have cleared cache, I have reset Firefox, I have cleared DNS on my MAC and really have no idea where to go from here. My preference to use Firefox as my working browser is to use Firebug. Please advise what are my options... I really look forward to some solution to this. Regards Karen Kirchmann

Hi Karen,

Can you give us a link to your website (if it's not private or protected by a password) to see if we can see if it's reproducible for us.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • The image "new fx menu" does not exist. > Options/Preferences> Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • The image "new fx menu" does not exist. > Options/Preferences > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Hi Bermea Well thank you!!!! The Command + Shift + R worked a treat. Can't believe I couldn't find that solution with all my searching. I would say this problem has been solved. Thanks for your prompt response. Good to know Firefox has great support when needed.
