[HELP] Non-Updating Signature

Discussion in 'Empire Help & Support' started by CraftyCosmic, Dec 17, 2015.

  1. When I change my signature, it still doesn't update! Help! If you see dragon eggs in my sig, I am not doing well.
  2. I think I know what's happening here, but correct me if I'm wrong: you edited the picture yourself, and then you don't see it show up in your signature on the forums, correct?

    That's perfectly normal: give it some time and I'll show up. Right now I don't see dragon eggs in your sig ;)

    The reason why this is happening is because the forums cache the images. So in other words: it remembers the image itself for a while before trying to download it again. What I usually do when I need to mess with an imagine is to use different names. So say I change my signature then I'd use "signature2.jpg" so that I force the forum to download it.

    Of course sometimes it can also be your browsers doing. In those cases force-reloading can also help. So pressing control (or shift) F5; the actual option can vary per browser.
