I am running into an issue with our website, which is built using github & Jekyll. The web page that I am trying to load works WITH a trailing slash, but if you type it in to your browser WITHOUT a trailing slash, it pulls up an outdated version of the entire site. This is creating issues for our site visitors because they are getting outdated information when they look at this page.
Weirdly, it is only an issue on this one page, not on any other page on the site.
outercoast.org/year (this is the url WITHOUT trailing slash is pulling up an out-of-date version- note that the top menu is also different and out of date from the rest of the site)
outercoast.org/year/ (this url WITH trailing slash is pulling up the correct version)
I tried some different things, like setting up a manual redirect and playing with permalink settings, but no luck.
Here is the repo: https://github.com/javbotero/Outer-Coast
Does anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this issue? Thanks so much for taking a look!
You have two pages :
year.html with permalink: /year/, it can be reached at http://outercoast.org/year/
year/index.html with permalink: /year, it can be reached at http://outercoast.org/year.html and http://outercoast.org/year
You will have to choose one of those pages, and I think that you can delete year/index.html.
The fact that http://outercoast.org/year returns an old version comes from your Amazon hosting. It seems that they are not invalidating cache.
