Changes Not Reflecting Online

If changes you made in the SeedProd editor are not appearing on the frontend of your site, a caching layer is almost always the cause. Work through the steps below in order until the issue is resolved.


Step 1: Clear All Caches

There are three caching layers that can each prevent updated content from displaying correctly.

WordPress cache: If you have a caching or optimization plugin installed (such as WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, or LiteSpeed Cache), open its settings and use the Purge or Clear Cache option. You can also temporarily disable the plugin to confirm whether it is causing the issue.

Server cache: Many hosting providers maintain a server-side cache that operates independently of any WordPress plugin. Log in to your hosting control panel and look for a cache clearing option, or contact your hosting provider’s support team and ask them to clear the server cache for your site.

Browser cache: Your browser may be displaying a saved version of the page rather than the latest one. Press Ctrl+Shift+R (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Shift+R (Mac) to force a hard reload, or open the page in a private or incognito browsing window to bypass the browser cache entirely.


Step 2: Check for Mixed Content Errors

If your site uses HTTPS but some resources are still loading over HTTP, the browser may block them silently, causing parts of the page to appear missing or unchanged. To check for this:

  1. Open your browser’s developer tools (press F12 or Cmd+Option+I on Mac).
  2. Click the Console tab and look for any mixed content warnings or errors.
  3. If mixed content errors are present, go to Settings > General in your WordPress admin and make sure both the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) fields use https://.

Step 3: Rule Out Plugin or Theme Conflicts

If clearing caches and fixing mixed content did not resolve the issue, a conflict with another plugin or your active theme may be responsible.

  1. Deactivate all plugins except SeedProd, then reload the page to check if your changes now appear.
  2. If the page updates correctly, reactivate your other plugins one at a time, reloading after each one, until the issue returns. The last plugin you reactivated is the likely cause.
  3. If the issue persists with all other plugins deactivated, temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme (such as Twenty Twenty-Four) to rule out a theme conflict.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, contact the SeedProd support team with details about what you have already tried. Including your WordPress version, active plugin list, and hosting provider will help speed up the diagnosis.
