Forum:Edits to the sidebar?

I followed the instructions for creating a forum such as this one on my Wikia. But for some reason on the Main Page the edits don't show. dantman 19:31, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind it appears that it just takes a annoyingly long time for the Main Page to clear up so the changes take effect. Even after you reload the page. dantman 20:24, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You should clear the browser cache, not just to reload the page. DCLXVI 20:48, 22 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Doing that still didn't work. It just took a good deal of time, but finaly the sidebar edits, and the css edits for the sidebar are showing up everywhere. Now if I could only change the recent changes page so that IP addresses would link to a userpage instead of a contributions list so that I don't have issues with writing up user warnings. dantman 23:30, 22 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I can usually see my new CSS and MediaWiki namespace changes by using clicking "reload" in Konqueror or shift-clicking "reload" in Firefox. But I had occasions once where that did not work, and even clearing my cache or opening a different browser (with a different cache) does not work. Sometimes I need to clear the server cache of a page with an action=purge (by clicking edit or history on the page, then changing action=edit or action=history to action=purge in the URL). Sometimes that also does not work, and I must wait as dantman states above. --Kernigh 21:09, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
