Apache/WordPress Cache Not Refreshing - wordpress

So I was trying out a caching plugin on my WP site. I had installed it after my home page never changed (forever static). Uninstalled the plugin, tried moving the WP files to another sub-domain, and my frontpage still was static. Even on another sub-domain. This only had happened when I changed some .htaccess settings for it, but I had already reverted these.
I've tried emptying my local cache, different computers, etc. Page is still static. Does anyone know what is going on?

Wordpress: pages are not updating despite emptying caches

I have used the plugin All-in-One WP Migration to get the site from the development environment to the live site (you can export and import a complete website).
Some pages have updated correctly but not all of the pages (they remain in the old style and structure).
I have deleted my browser cache several times (tried several browsers on different computers even), deleted caches created by plugins several times (tried deactivating those plugins as well). However, despite trying to delete all the caches I can think of, some pages are just not updating. As the page templates for these pages do not exist anymore on the server, I am at a complete loss as to what's preventing all the pages from updating correctly.
What am I missing?
May I ask is your site already live? Cause I had the same issue as yours and I manage to get it updated by deleting the cache by "Flush Cache" on my WordPress admin page
Once you logged in to your WordPress admin site you'll find this and click that
Flush Cache
Flush Cache (2)
I am not so sure why that happens but I am thinking it might be because from the server and might need sometime on updating any changes made. It happened to me also when I have some updates on my site then once I save everything and go to my site, still the old ones are being shown but when I Flush Cache then it shows up the new ones... I think the reason because it still shows up the old ones is probably of the cache from the old ones in the server and by flushing them is being able to show the updated ones.

wordpress erratic cache-like behavior

I am having a really weird issue with one of my clients' WP installations.
Site behaves as if there was some kind of caching active. And it's the most noticeable in wp-admin area.
When I open plugin config page, what I see there does not correspond with what's really happening: wrong plugins are marked as active and some, that are active are not even visible (as if not even installed).
Hitting F5 usually helps and correct information is displayed, but when I go back to the dashboard (or any other page) and return to the plugin management, again wrong information is shown. If I click to enable/disable any of the present plugins, page is either not updating at all or is loading incorrect statuses.
What I have done so far to try to solve this:
disabled all of the plugins
switched to the "stock" theme (Twenty Seventeen)
changed the language to EN (oddily enough, when toggling plugins, language switched back to the previous one)
checked nginx configs for any cache-related settings and disabled those
checked for presence of Varnish / Redis etc (not present)
disabled OPcache
checked whether the site is served via CDN (is not)
checked if wp-config.php is containing settings like define('WP_CACHE', true); (it does, but commented out)
switched PHP versions
changed PHP workers
disabled nginx to Apache proxying
wiped the "plugin" directory clean
Nothing seems to be helping.
Other websites, hosted on that server, do not experience any issues. Has anyone experienced anything like that? Any ideas how to fix it?
Here you can see "live" what I mean:
In case anyone else had issues like I did, here is what I did to finally solve it:
wiped all server-side cache
wiped wp cache files
uninstalled all the plugins
uninstalled the style
reinstalled WP
rebuild all user configs / permissions etc
reinstalled style
reinstalled all the plugins
ta-daaa!
it's working now. What a mess this was... o_O

WordPress blank page error

I installed WooCommerce and many plugins. It was all running well. Suddenly I started facing an issue at homepage. I removed everything and restored it by using the backup files taken by duplicator plugin.
I can’t see anything except a blank page. I can’t even access admin panel. Plugins are fine I tested by disabling all. Themes are creating issue. When I disable theme folder by renaming it, admin panel works. When I try to install new theme it doesn’t happen. I can’t even change theme. I don’t know what is exactly the issue.

Why after updating a custom WordPress theme it doesn't change?

I bought a theme for WordPress and when i try to edit the theme it would not change a thing.
i even deleted images and background from the theme and it somehow still shows up on the page like its being cached somewhere. I cleared my browsers cache and just to be sure i tried to visit the my website on a different computer and the same page shows up.
My question is does WordPress cache images somewhere automatically? if yes is there any way to flush it?
WP doesn't cache anything unless you have any caching plugins enabled. Try disabling all plugins and double checking that the files you deleted are really the ones that you're seeing in your browser.
Right click on any images to get their source then compare them with the path of the image on the server, are they the same?

wordpress wp-login.php?redirect_to wrong path

This is a weird one. I googled for hours but seems to me not a single person has this same issue.
I moved my website from http://www.domain1.com/wpfolder to http://www.domain2.com . Everything works fine except I cannot get the "wp-login.php?redirect_to" path to point to the correct url.
WordPress keeps setting it to:
"wp-login.php?redirect_to=http://www.domain2.com/wpfolder/wp-admin&reauth=1"
It should be setting it to:
"wp-login.php?redirect_to=http://www.domain2.com/wp-admin&reauth=1"
The "wpfolder" doesn't exist anymore..
I followed the instructions exactly on how to move a WordPress website, but the darn URL won't change...
Some forum mentioned changing the "site_url" and "home" from "http://www.domain2.com" to "http://domain2.com". Now I can finally get to the admin panel, but I don't get why it needs to be that way?
I cleaned my browser cookies and checked the wp-content folder for cache already. Nada..
Also the rest of the site is functional.
I would appreciate if anyone can help.
I moved the WordPress website from GoDaddy to Bluehost by copying the files and the database and the problem went away. I am not sure why this fixed it, but assuming it has something do with the cache.
If anybody has more information, I would love to read about it.
Thanks
I was facing the same issue, with same redirection to one of the sub-directory in which wordpress was installed.
Resolved this issue, by clearing the cache, if some cache plugin is active.
Or by deleting the cache plugin if any present and is currently not yet active.
As some entries made by cache plugin inside wp-config.php file creates the above mentioned problem.
After removing the cache plugin, it resolves the WP-admin URL issues.
