Bad avatar caching problem

Yes, I am aware you need to log out and back in for this to change. But the forum is having a really bad caching problem with my profile picture. I logged out and back in, while my profile picture is changed everywhere, this is not the case for posts and topics which still show my old avatar. I’ve cleared cache as well, still nothing. Tried viewing from other browsers (I mainly use Brave, opened up Microsoft Edge, same result), I still see my old avatar.

  1. Change avatar
  2. Log out and back in
  3. See you may still have your previous avatar

I am using Brave Version 1.19.90 Chromium: 88.0.4324.146 (Official Build) (64-bit) but am still able to see this on other browsers like Microsoft Edge Version 88.0.705.56 (Official build) (64-bit)

(you might still even see me as a squirtle right now!)

Discourse generates and caches profile images at different sizes, it looks like the big size is updated but one of the smaller sizes is not. Let’s wait a while and see if Discourse is still processing it or otherwise you could try re-logging to re-run the job to get it to update. If it still isn’t updated in a day or two please let me know.

Can’t reproduce. You are fully un-Squirtle-ified for me at all sizes. I am using the same browser as you.

I see your new avatar on my PC. Opera 72 or something [don’t think its been updated since January 12th or so].

opera://about
latest is 73.0.3856.389 iirc, maybe try updating?

This is a caching issue, it can occur with any version of any browser. If you cannot reproduce it then it means the CDN node that is serving you already has the updated file.

Here’s my about page [seems like I miscalculated my version, thought I was on the previous one as I still had Opera nagging me to disable Flash Player]:

Ah ok,

@sjr04, by the way is my avatar different for you? I changed it and I want to see if it still happens with other people or only yourself, and yes like everyone else said you arent a squirtle for me

Alright so it was fixed by itself yesterday a few hours after your reply, I just completely didn’t notice it for some reason. And yes @ComplexPriorities I see you differently.

Thanks!
