Cached style.css not renewed when cache is deleted

    When I updated the style.css file for my site’s theme I noticed my style changes weren’t displaying-even after deleting the Supercache cache. Other edits were displaying, but not changes to style.css. When I turned off Supercache, my updated stylesheet loaded.
    I was able to finally “flush the cache” and get the updated stylesheet to load, however, by going into my files and deleting wp-content/cache/supercache/my-website/index-https.html
    I would think, however, that requiring this file to be manually deleted in order to update a stylesheet is a bug, not a feature. Is this a bug? Or is there some setting or options I’m missing in order to enable the stylesheet to update?

    Note that I also have the CDN option turned on. The CDN urls seem to work fine so the CDN option being activated may or may not be part of the problem.
    This problem was replicated on another site I manage.

    WP Super Cache does not cache the CSS files because they are already static files. However, the web browser will almost always cache the CSS files.

    To make sure your visitors always get the fresh CSS file, you have to use a cache busting strategy and then flushing the cache will serve the fresh CSS files.
