The favicon and other don't update

[Michaelwu]

I tried so many times and the web will always add a ?v=xxxx after the request icon.
I want to use /assets/uploads/system/site-logo.png, but it load /assets/uploads/system/site-logo.png?v=irmuo6f721g

I tried nginx and other but it will lose css and other stuff.
The problem won't happen if I use IP address, only happen in domain.
If there is config problem, what should I do (I use Cludflare and disabled all cache)

[Michaelwu]

I am trying downgrade to v3.5.1..

Wait some time , in cache

[Michaelwu]

I set the cache to Bypass but it still has v=xxx.
if I delete v=xxx it will be fine

The cache buster ?v=xxxx is added here https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/blob/master/src/meta/tags.js#L65, if you don't see a newly uploaded favicon, try restarting nginx and make sure the new favicon is in public/favicon.ico and public/uploads/system/favicon.ico

[Michaelwu]

@baris Can I disable it? After restarting didnt work...

[Michaelwu]

Like I can access all files normally without v=xxxx .
I delete all the item in /system, it the v=xxx still can be visit

[Michaelwu]

Is there any commands like rm-rf to remove these or a place to discable the cache?

[baris]

If you want to remove the v=xxx from the urls for whatever reason you can remove the cache buster on this line https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/blob/master/src/meta/tags.js#L65.

You would have to consult nginx docs to disable it's cache.

[Michaelwu]

Yeah, the site logo has the same problem... How should i solve it (thanks a lott) @baris

[baris]

You can remove it from here https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-theme-harmony/blob/main/templates/partials/header/brand.tpl#L7 if you are using harmony theme

[Michaelwu]

Emm.. How I change Template files?

[Michaelwu]

And it seems all files has ?v=xxx including js... (Weird @baris qwq

[baris]

You shouldn't really be removing the v=xxx if you are not seeing the changes you make you should clear your cache or rebuild restart and the cache buster value will change.

[Michaelwu]

@baris Epps I do theme change everything won;t be applied and I deleted all cache buster stuff and disabled and purged cache but it still not working.
Seems my web theme and style are locked... (Sad

[Michaelwu]

I am trying downgrade to v3.5.1..

[Michaelwu]
