    Thank you, Arun. I apologize for the delay – I was out of town.

    I do not know how to utilize the zip file you provided. Thanks anyways!

    I did begin to go in and manually add “www.” where it was lacking on our website. I did this on a few pages. Then I tested. But I get the same results. Even the offline page, as simple as that is, did not appear.

    Perhaps I was not thorough enough. But I changed both page links and media links as best as I know how. I did this on four pages (home, privacy policy, registration, and the offline page). But testing these pages with the PWA – they do not appear, unless it was the last page I visited prior to going offline.

    Let me know if I am missing something. Or if you want me to test the zip file, please instruct me.

    Thanks!

    Okay. I need to correct something from my posts above. Let’s look at “Our Programs”:

    1. If I click on it, it goes to the page and has www.
    2. If I copy link (by right clicking on PC or long pressing on Android), paste that in my browser, and hit return, it goes to the page and has www.
    3. In WordPress, the permalink has www.
    4. HOWEVER, now I see that the copied link address (#2) DOES NOT HAVE www. (It just redirects to www after pressing return.)

    Do you know how to change this behavior, to make it www?

    Will I have to find and change all pages and assets that lack www?

    Thanks for all this great help!

    Upon further inspection, I believe you perhaps got your “wwws” reversed. It appears the assets lack “www.” I will try to change that and see what happens. (Or if that is not what you’re recommending as a fix, please stop me. ?? )

    Thanks so much for your attention and help!

    Arun, can you please clarify something? When I go to “Our Programs,” the url is https://www.muscsoccer.org/programs/. Likewise, in WordPress, when I go the “Our Programs” page, the permalink is listed the same.

    Are you able to explain the discrepancy? And where I go in WordPress to find and change the non-www link? Because at this point, I only know how to find the permalink.

    Thanks again!

    Okay. Thanks for pointing that out, Jose.

    I uninstalled the PWA. Then I bit the bullet and cleared “Cookies and site data” along with everything else cached in the Chrome app on my android. Then I reinstalled the PWA. Then I went offline.

    At first, I thought the behavior was the same. I opened the PWA. The most recently visited page (“Our Locations”) appeared.* Then, as before, as I navigated using the menu, I got the same message (the frowny page).

    But then I used the back button on my phone. I think I hit it twice, because it went to the page I visited before “Our Locations” – which was the “Contact Us” page. Likewise, I hit back again, and it went to the page I saw before that. And once more.

    There were no pages I visited before that. So the frowny page appeared, and this time a pop-up also appeared that said “Can’t connect to the site” with a blue “OK” you could press. (This is a native android-type box.)

    So it seems the menu buttons don’t work on the PWA. And the offline page/message I created solely for the PWA does not appear.

    To be honest, I’m not sure whether clearing the cookies and site info on Chrome made any difference or not. (I didn’t test the back button previous times.)

    * Note: Just to give a little more info, just in case it helps, when I pulled up the PWA offline this time – to the “Our Locations” page – that page happens to have a google map on it. But offline, where the map usually is, pictures of the inside of a local middle school appeared, with a google listing for our school district. (You know, the kind with stars rating it plus contact info.) It’s kind-of weird. Granted, the last address listed before the map is the middle school. But how these appeared, and appeared offline, is strange to me.

    Thanks, Jose.

    1. Check website on any other device by clearing the browser cache: Done. Same behavior.
    2. Check on PC/laptop: Done. Works correctly.

    The only other piece of info I can think to add is that when I clear the browser on these phones and on the PC, I do not clear “Cookies and site data,” because it will sign me out of most sites.

    Much appreciated, Jose.

    I tried clearing Chrome cache again. But I had the same behavior with the PWA once offline. Only the most recently seen page appears. The rest give the same frowny icon (and not my offline page).

    Fwiw, I, too, can confirm that my offline page (www.muscsoccer.org/home-2) works fine in my Chrome browser.

    I am using Chrome version 65.0.3325.109.

    My phone is a Moto X, generation 1 (XT1049), and it runs Android 5.1.0.

    Thanks, Jose!

    You know, I did clear the device cache before posting (which didn’t help obviously). But it slipped my mind to clear browser cache. Yes, that worked! The pop-up appeared.

    I still have experienced issues related to being offline. Once offline, if I open the app, the most recent page visited appears. (YAY!) However:
    1. Pages I visited minutes earlier while online do not appear.
    2. My offline page does not appear. (Rather, I get a generic “This site can’t be reached” page, with an icon on top of a piece of paper with a frowny face.)

    Let me know if you’d prefer me to start a new thread.

    I do already appreciate this ability to have a PWA for our website! It’s very cool – and works great when online. And thank you so much for your prompt reply to my post.

    All the best.
