Pages don't update when markdown content changes
eventhough opened this issue · 9 comments
I notice when I refresh the page I am not picking up any changes that happen in .md files. Is there a way to force wintersmith to pull the latest content for each page reload?
if you use wintersmith preview content is generated on each request
@jnordberg Are there any other settings that need to be added because I am running wintersmith preview, updating index.md, and not seeing any changes. The only way I can get changes in content is if I ctrl-c and re-run wintersmith preview. Here is my project: https://github.com/eventhough/kevinandkaty.com
Just tested your project and it updates fine for me. Check that your wintersmith install is fresh
@jnordberg I'm running wintersmith 2.2.3 which is the latest. So weird. I run $ wintersmith preview in my project directory...then I edit any .md file and I go back to my browser to refresh localhost:8080...and nothing. The only way I get changes is if I restart wintersmith preview. Is there any way I can output a debug log or something? Again this is not a huge deal for me since the site I'm building does not require very many changes...but I figured it should probably pick up changes without restart.
Odd, Post a debug log with wintersmith preview -v also your platform and node version

Change does not show up in browser.
Logs look fine. Guessing it's the fsevents not coming through for some reason..
Try updating to node v4 and see if that helps. If not run the https://github.com/paulmillr/chokidar test suite.
Also i disabled the wintersmith-libsass plugin you have since i don't have the deps installed, long shot but try without it.
Thanks it was worth a shot. I removed all the plugins and tried again...still no content updates. It's okay. Thanks for all your work on this site builder - it's super easy to use.
It just doesn't reload any *.md files included in templates.
