How can I clear a single site from the cache in Firefox?
Solution 1:
- Select the Firefox Menu button (three horizontal lines on the right).
- Select Library.
- Select History.
- Scroll to the bottom and select Show All History.
- Search for the site using the Search History field in the upper-right corner.
- Within the results, right-click the appropriate page and select Forget About This Site.
Note: This will clear saved passwords for the site as well.
Solution 2:
If you want to do a force-refresh, which is what I think you want to do, hit CTRL+F5. And of course, Cmd+F5 on a Mac. Works on Chrome too.
Solution 3:
Please note that there is currently no way to clear cached HTTP redirects (at least 301 type) without using a plugin.
Ctrl+F5 / Cmd+F5 does not work as you are being immediately redirected to the target URL so you can not refresh the original one.
So I used CacheViewer plugin mentioned here before to deal with this.
