Page not reflecting theme-page changes

    I have a page that displays post and it stopped responding to adjustments to the theme-page it is based off of. It was working fine yesterday, today I went in and changed an <h1> tag to an <h2> tag and it wouldn’t reflect the alteration. I have another similar page, so I copied the code out of that theme-page and pasted it over top the code in the other page hoping it would replicate the other page, but still unresponsive, it still displays the older content. I checked the source code in the browser and it is still reflecting the code prior to all changes. Has anyone an idea of what could be going on here?

  • Are you using any caching plugins? Are you sure that you edited a template from the correct theme?

    I am definitely using the correct template. I do have a plugin called post expirator, how do I find out if it is a caching plugin and how would I resolve that if it were?

    Thanks for your insight.

    **UPDATE**

    I went outside of wordpress and opened the actual php file for the theme-page in a text editor. Within wordpress the code was reflecting my changes, but it wasn’t working. In the actual php page file, when revealed in a text editor, none of those changes took place, it was the old code prior to any alterations. So essentially, when I hit update, it did not update the actual php file, although within the wordpress editor window when selecting that php file, it showed the code changes had taken place… Even after rebooting, clearing cache, etc. The code that wordpress displayed in the editor window for that php file was different than the actual code within the php file…

    Site works now, so… But if anyone knows what could cause this, I would love to know.

    thanks

    If you are not using any caching plugins, I can only guess that either your host or your ISP is operating a rather slow web cache.
