One more occurance of ā€œretail store questionā€ :wink:

Actually there is a solution to this problem that was at some time already used for the web interface.

@obj Would you be willing to change the query string in index.html every time you do a release?

It would only be a simple search and replace. Basically on every css and js resource you use the current release version as a query string as you see in this diff:

-               <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css?v=2" />
+               <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css?v=3_6_3" />

With the query string the browser will see it as ā€œnew fileā€ and get the new version instead of using its own cache.
Instead of updating only on actual changes on the css/js files this approach seems easier to me as only a search/replace on release is required.

Iā€™m not maintaining Skyview, but I can pass it on.

Note that this versioning does not help if the browser has index.html itself cached.

Caching rules for index.html are different somehow.

A simple refresh (compared to clearing the cache) will refresh the main page.
The browsers have different policies to cache css and js files a lot longer.

I suppose one could also just use no-cache on the main html file as itā€™s only one request and the response will typically be 304 Not Modified.

<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0" />

Anyway iā€™m sure the webteam will have more knowledge than me.
Thanks for forwarding the suggestion @obj.

@Dxista
Good that you got so worked up in the other thread it made me research a solution to the problem :slight_smile:
(I know i know you deleted your answer!)

You are right. Iā€™ll just ignore the questions from now on. I do have a ā€˜weak spotā€™ for when the same question is asked ad nauseam, specially when the answer is available just a couple of posts before, no need to use the bad search capabilities of the forum to find it.
