Fix blank page issue

Closed this issue · 1 comments

When a user visits the website/blog, the page is white/blank and fails to load. The user is forced to refresh the page on every page view or any time they navigate to a new page.

Partial solutions addressed with #36 and #29

Reason it was occurring:
In the past, the dApp existed on the octo.fi domain but was migrated to app.octo.fi in recent months. The dApp stores a reference to files in the browser's application cache to improve load times and increase performance of the dApp. Refreshing the site does not clear this storage.

Solution (unregister service workers):
Copy one of the items below and go to that page in your browser. Search for https://octo.fi. If that text exists on the page, click Unregister under the result.

Another Solution:
Completely clear your browser data. Use with caution since this clears your saved passwords.
Settings -> Privacy and security -> Clear browsing data -> Advanced, select all items for All Time and Clear data.
