RustIndy, thx for that – it put me on the right track.

<meta http-equiv=”pragma” content=”no-cache”>
tells proxy agents not to cache the site

<meta http-equiv=”expires” content=”0″>
tells both proxy servers and browsers to always load the site from its original source

<meta http-equiv=”cache-control” content=”no-cache”>
is browser-related and tells whatever browser to forget about the cache and load the page from scratch

What I am wondering about is two things:

a) Which (combination) of these makes sense to be used?

b) Is there a way to do this context-related, i.e. only if the page has indeed been renewed, it’s reloaded?

Dear Miserable09, what a name to go by ?? Here a few links for ways to get your images rotating, with detailed and clear instructions on how to call for it where:

I just wanted to post a little update by way of this that on my computer I never had this problem again so far, but on others I can still reproduce it with exactly the same settings.

Which are in Firefox 1.0.4: Cookies enabled, but for the originating website only and until I close Firefox. I don’t have my website added to the exceptions.

In other words: I still have no clue whatsoever why it did not work and why it does now. I know this is not very helpful inside a support forum, but nonetheless an important piece of information for someone… As it seems to be a major problem for people starting to use WordPress.

May be there is something that can be done about it?

What can be gathered from all the other posts is that this is not an issue limited to one provider or to one browser. It would be good to have a solution though, as a lot of people seem to easily get annoyed about it and leave…

Well well,

now it works again, and I wish I had a clue why – reading all those threads has given me the impression more help on this would be highly appreciated…

Sorry for this, and thanks for your help guys.

I have the feeling I’ll be back …

So long ??

Sorry for the registration blockage, I didn’t wanna people start getting into it before it’s ready.

What happens is: I open up https://www.brandstuve.de/wp-login/ and enter my information; it takes a while until the message is returned.

In the same session I get the message already when trying to go back to the site, without entering the information at all.

Cleaning out cookies, I get to the site and it starts all over again…

Alas,

some more information might help ??
