I just uploaded an avatar image, but it’s only showing on my account page, not on any of my existing posts or at the top of the page when I’m logged in. Any idea why?

Hi Pakka - try refreshing the page mate, or clearing your browser cache.

For many who upload an avatar (or update their avatar) on here… they won’t see that change on the main site until this is done.
 

If you are using a windows based operating system, press the ‘F5’ key. Or hold down the ‘CTRL’ key and then press the ‘F5’ key.

If you are using an apple based operating system, from the menu bar in Safari, choose View > Reload Page. Or press Command-R.

If the following web page is kept up to date, it should be of some help (for mobile devices too): www.wikihow.com/Refresh-a-Page
 

Let us know if the above works or not - thank you. 👍

My avatar also isn’t showing. I’ve uploaded it twice, it appears in my profile page, but not anywhere else. It’s not a big issue, just niggly.

Sorry, when I say it appears on my profile page, I mean my edit profile page, but nowhere else.

EDIT Never mind, I’ve figured it out. I just had to delete the shortcut from my phone’s homescreen and enter the site again in my browser.
