Loading or Formatting Issues Related to Browser Caching

A WordPress website needs to receive updates regularly in order to maintain its software up-to-date and secure, and also for the protection of our user’s personal data. Once updates are applied on our website, then a lot of files and Cookie values are changing.

When you use a browser, it saves some website data in your cache, cookies, and internet browsing history. Browser cache saves files like code, images, and fonts when you visit a website. It does this to avoid repeatedly downloading the same files when you revisit the site. Problems typically happen due to a discrepancy between newly updated site data and the cached data available on your device.

Cookies also save website data about user choices and characteristics, and in some cases Cookies are responsible for the website’s proper functionality.

Some issues you may face relevant to this topic have to do with “Invalid Captcha Error”, errors about blank fields during checkout while everything is filled in properly, content inconsistency etc.

Troubleshooting:

When you realize that you perform tasks but the result is unexpected, we recommend you to delete your browser’s history, cookies and cache memory / saved files.

Therefore, when you clear browsing data like history, cache, and cookies, you improve web security and site performance.
