Refreshing Problem
 

I'm not an expert on this stuff, but it looks like your http headers allow caching for 1 hour (Cache-Control: private, max-age=3600). But I don't know if F5 reloads the cache - I guess it depends on your browser and OS.

I think there are two possibilities:

1- he is caching everything on his website using web server caching too or a CDN or both at the same time.

2- his browser is caching everything and that happens only if the caching time has been setup by person using or without using an add-on.

:)

So any solutions if it's cache problem?

I don't know a lot about it really. Do you have an .htaccess file? I know it's possible to set caching there. And probably in the web server configuration.

it is very simple, all you need is to install a fresh copy of a browser such as Chrome or FF and see how it goes... then check whether the issue is still there or not!!

make sure you don't have anything to loss if you had to re-install a new copy of browser like bookmarks and possibly other browser settings.

Here my .htaccess

This solution is not logical and I'm sure 100% it wont work, I already have this problem in my PC/phone, also other members have the same issue, they don't have to re-install they browsers for nothing.

Try commenting out the text/html ExpiresByType, like:
or you could just delete the line.

I've tried to remove this line from .htaccess but still the same problem.

Did you leave it out or did you put it back? I still see the max-age=3600 on that page. Maybe that info is also in one of the apache config files (like httpd.conf)? Otherwise I'm not sure where else to look for it. Like fxdigi-cash said, it could also be in a plugin or in the code somewhere. I'm not sure why it would be, but it's the only other thing I can think of.

Of course I could also be wrong about that causing the problem.

I put this line back, sorry I am not experienced about what you talking about, so I searched for httpd.conf file but didn't find it, can you please redirect the thread to someone can give me solution?

There's no way to redirect it. If someone else sees the thread and has something to add, they will.

I really think you should remove that line though. The vbulletin code takes care of setting the cache headers for different pages. It may not be the only thing causing this problem, but I don't think you want it.

I removed the line :)
Now what :P still need help

Might be a stupid suggestion, but have you considered removing everything from the .htaccess (or altering the filename) to see if it's htaccess related?

It would at least scrap 1 thing from your list to check.

^^^ That's a good idea.

The 'max-age' is gone now. You're sure you still have the problem?

Yes I still, I decided to re-install the forum, btw when I empty .htaccess it give me error

Ya, I figured that would have caused an error because there are rewrite rules in your htaccess. It would have been important as well to disable all plugins:

https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/disable_plugins (or only the plugin that uses the caching)

As well as temp change the Friendly URL to default:

https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/...ofriendly_urls (if used in htaccess)

But seeing you reinstalled your entire forums, I assume that the whole issue has been solved.

Guys I re-installed the forum and it seems fine, so I imported the previous database's but I have a problem with members database, I can see the members in member list, when I search for any user in the admin cpanel it shows me blank boxes, but when I try to add the current user it say the user is already registered in the forum, also when I back up the threads it show's that the creator user of the thread are guest

Any solutions?

What did you do exactly, did you import the entire database? If you just imported the user table, then I think you also need the userfield and usertextfield tables.

Alright thanks, fixed it
