Edits made in Atom not updating on the website when I refresh?

I saw this question already, but none of the answers seemed to work for me.

I downloaded the workspace zip and file, opened index.html from the file so that the webpage appeared in the browser, went to the articles page and saw the issues mentioned in the video. From there I opened atom and edited the code the same way he does it in the video. When I save and go refresh the webpage, none of the edits I made seem to have updated on the website.

Any info helps! thanks!

Hi not sure if you’ve already tried this, but sometimes its because of caching and you need to use a ‘hard refresh’ to reload the webpage. In Chrome on a Mac it’s Cmd + R but if you’re using a different browser you can just google the keyboard shortcut.

One other thing to go along with what Michelle said to try, are you extracting the files from the zip file?
