The frontend page doesn't show what I set up in the Backend.
Solution
Empty the 'Browser Page Cache' and if that doesn't help, empty the 'Typo3 Page Cache' .
Additional Information
It may happen that recent changes in the backend don't instantaneous appear in the frontend. That's because the frontend doesn't reproduce the page every time you access it. It loads the ready-made page out of a cache (temporary memory) to be able to display the content faster. In this cache an older version of your page might be stored.
The frontend page doesn't show the right page when I click on a link.
Solution
Empty the 'Real URL Cache' . If this doesn't help, you probably have a mistype in your page setup.
Additional Information
Typo3 translates the cryptic links to more readable links and stores these in a cache (temporary memory) in order not to do this every time you click on a link. This cache might not have been updated to your current version of the page.
How to empty the cache?
General Information
There are three types of caches you should know about:
Typo3 Page Cache stores the ee.ethz pages to grant visitors a faster access.
Real URL cache stores the links to each ee.ethz page.
Browser Page Cache stores all pages you visit in your browser to grant you a faster access to the pages you already visited. This has nothing to do with the ee.ethz Typo3 environment.
