Game Icon not Updating
3 years ago
Canada

I set the game icon for a new board, but forgot to make it square. (which would lead to it being stretched in the user info page) Initial Image (https://www.speedrun.com/themes/dark_crystal/favicon.png)

I updated it to a square: Updated Image (https://www.speedrun.com/themes/dark_crystal/favicon.png?version=6306c025)

but the update didn't seem to propagate to the info page, where I still see the stretched icon. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/448991972427038731/766019860454441001/unknown.png

I tried setting it to entirely other images too, but the initial upload is the only one I've seen. It doesn't seem to be any kind of local cache, I've tried it on multiple computers in multiple places and always get the same icon appearing. Am I missing something, is the system just slow to update it, or is this a bug?

Web browsers save images in the cache for easier loading in the next time you open the page. It take some time for the browser to refresh the cache automatically (it mostly depends on the browser and its settings). To clear the cache yourself, refresh the page with Ctrl+F5 (works for Chrome and Firefox).

That was my first thought; so I remoted into a few other computers I have on different networks, all of them seemed to pull the same initial skinny image. Also Chromes 'Empty Cache and hard reload' with dev tools open, and the standard ctrl+f5 on firefox, but same results.

Is it loading the correct square one for you? (https://www.speedrun.com/themes/dark_crystal/favicon.png)

Same experience, the icon will take several hours to update, but it will eventually.
