Now this happed to be about two hours difference; so I was expecting the post to be updated now.
Issue:
The blog did not get updated, the URL still stayed the same old.
Tested in 3 different browsers
Tested incognito mode
Logged into to server and found
The same md file with yesterday’s date (was in draft state) and today’s date
Removed yesterday’s dated file
Tried to re-publish via Elements, still no success
Edited the md file directly on the server and all seem fine
Help:
What did I do wrong
Why did the site not get updated when locally everything seems to work and links have been updated?
If I publish a new blog / site update later in the next couple of days; should I expect the issue to be resolved? If this continues to happens, what are my options?
Not sure I understand the sequence/actor(s) is here. You may be talking about the synchronization issue several of us have been discussing, or it might be something else. You also mention “draft” as opposed to “published.” I think we either need more details or need to see the Elements file you’re working with.
This may already have been discussed, so please forgive my ignorance. Let me clarify the issue:
I wrote a blog post and saved it as a draft, but it had the wrong URL.
I completed and published the post without updating its status or URL.
A few hours later, I realised my mistake. I updated the status and URL, then republished it.
The updated status and URL appear to have been published successfully. I can see the new post, but the URL displayed in the post is still the old one and has not updated.
This is when I performed step 2 from my original post: “Logged into the server and found…”
