Clearing the cache of your browser is sometimes necessary if you are having issues with old information being stored in your browser.

Common issues that can usually be resolved by clearing the cache and cookies include: pages being stuck publishing, getting stuck at the 'tips' screen, the 'save' prompt on a page spinning endlessly, and specific pages in the editor not loading.

A common cause that would require the need to clear cache is logging into multiple ecommerce accounts at once. Clearing cache helps ensure the data in your browser is relevant to the store you are working within.
