[Support request] My buttons redirect me to other theme

[Luis]

I’ve been using WP for about 2 days, and today I was setting up my header, buttons, logo..
I found GP, loved it and bought it. After I finished setting up some things, I tested it on another browser, and when I click the contact page, it redirects me to OceanWP. Have no idea what’s going on. Also, when I click some other buttons, the design changes. Maybe wordpress takes a while to update or something like that? I’m lost, need some guidance.

Hi there,

can you try clearing your browser cache and previewing the site in an incognito / private browser window?

[Luis]

Thanks for the reply. I did that, and now the only button broken is the home one. The others work fine. Should I do something or will it fix itself?

[David]

Hi there,

try deleting that home page, create a new one and then assign that as your home page in the Dashboard > Settings > Reading, let me know.

Some things got fixed, but I customized and changed stuff, and it got messed up again. I don’t know if WP or the theme are supposed to take a while to update my changes, or if I’m doing something wrong..

[David]

This is generally cache related, Can you check with your host to see if they have a cache enabled on the server and if so this needs to be flushed. Let me know.

[Luis]

Yeah, they fixed it. Thanks a lot David!

You’re welcome !

Hi, it happened again. I published a post, and I get the nothing found page instead of my homepage. Also, when I open the post, the image that I use changes, and it becomes the logo of my site instead.

[Luis]

I’m confused because they guy from my hosting company told me he “deactivated” the cache or something like that (I don’t know if that’s even possible), and that I wouldn’t have the issue happening again. I guess it’s something that I have to do regularly, or maybe I have to be more patient and just give it time to process the changes? Sorry, I’m very new to websites.

Hi Luis,

Check in the WP Dashboard > Settings > Reading – What do you have ‘You’re home page displays:’ set as?

Now my homepage is fine, but the image in my post is still messed up.

[Luis]

It just got fixed, not sure how. Just would like to know why this happens.

Try clearing your browser cache. As its displaying correctly on my browser.
Always worth previewing your site in an Incognito / Private browser as it doesn’t cache 🙂
