I’ve replaced a 2 column stack on a page in my project with a new stack by @willwood Will Woodgate that will be called “Tinker” and is like a multi column stack but with more options. It will be listed on his site soon.
RWC is not publishing this change. Will has looked at my website and says the old 2 column stack is still published, as if I never published the page with the “Tinker” stack. But I published it normally, then published just that page twice, then republished the entire project. Then restarted my computer and published just that page again. And it is still not publishing the change.
Here are screenshots
This is what the Tinker stack looks like as opposed to the 2 column stack in edit mode.
This is what it looks like when previewing the page in RWC and in Safari preview as well. You can see that the Tinker stack moves the close/back “X” icon to the far right of the page, which is the point.
I don’t think this is a problem with the Tinker stack, because you can see RWC is also not publishing the changes to the size of the fontawesome “X” icon. I made it larger in the Tinker stack as you can see in the above screenshots.
I don’t know what to try next to make it publish these changes or why it’s not publishing them.
Hi @Spacemonkey Yes Will Woodgate is right, on the console we see the Yourhead column stack appear (in the html). Apart from deleting the site (after having saved everything and checked that the backups allow a restoration!) and publishing it entirely again to see if it finally works, you would have to go and delete “by hand” the html line containing the unwanted item. No guarantee that in a new publication it will not reappear.
Are you sure you are not just experiencing caching? Either on your Mac, on your local network, or at your web host or CDN provider?
First I’d clear your browser’s cache and history (everything), then I’d try checking the site in your browser’s Private or Incognito browsing mode. If that doesn’t work I’d check your web host to see if they have any caching feature that you need to go in and clear, same if you are using a CDN. Finally I’d flush your DNS cache on your Mac to make sure there isn’t any network caching going on.
thanks! Will figured it out, and the cause is kind of embarrassing. Will Woodgate helps me with advanced code on this site and I had sent him my project with the FAQ page made, but without the folder named yet in the page inspector settings. So it was set to the default “page”. But after I sent him the project, I finished working on the faq page and named the folder and published it with the folder name “faq”. And then Will sent me the project file back and I dragged the updated stacks over to the older version of the FAQ page, but forgot that it still had “page” as the folder name, so when I published it again, I wound up with two of these pages, one at
The “page” url has the Tinker stack uploaded and working great.
So I just republished the whole site after naming the current FAQ page folder “faq”. And now I just need to delete the “page” version.
Sorry, kind of an embarrassing mistake. And not Will’s fault at all to be clear, he’s brilliant. Just confusing sending project files back and forth and working on them in the meantime.
Will’s Tinker stack is going to be really useful for everyone I think, lots of ways to adjust stack alignments that are difficult to do otherwise.
