    Hi Everyone,
    I have tried searching the doco but I think my question is so simple it may not be mentioned.
    I didn't write our web page, we paid someone else to do it, I'm charged with the job of doing minor updates.

    I Believe we are running Modx 2.2.8 but I'm not sure as the people who host the site re-badged the bit where the version number is normally found

    I have the job of making minor updates to our pages using the CMS and the "Manager" logon.

    I have found the pages I want to update and made the simple textual changes in the on screen editor and saved the changes. So far so good.

    I have clicked the preview button and the changes are there, however the live site doesn't show my updates.
    I'm sure this worked easily the last time I made changes months ago.

    The published tick box is on. I even put a new Published Date/Time 10 minutes in the future.
    Under the SITE menu I chose the Clear Cache option and that reported lots of success messages.
    I have cleared my browser cache and tried different browsers and different workstations.

    How come my updates don't appear to be published.
    I must be missing something obvious.

    Thanks for any clues.

    David

      If you go back to edit mode, have your changes been accepted?

        Hi Don,
        I sorted it out and replied to another post.
        This post was one of my accidental duplicates.

        Thanks for your consideration.

        The answer was the stupid way the web designers created the site with two IDENTICAL pages where there should have been one page with multiple links.
        We paid them well I can't believe they did such a half arsed job.
