Very new to Umbraco. I am making changes to the content but the changes are not showing up on the website. I made the changes, saved the changes, and published the changes. When I preview, the changes are reflected, but when I go to the website, the changes are not showing up. I republished the nodes, but still nothing. Any ideas? Thanks.
how are you getting the content from the backend onto your web site?
I assume you have created at least one document type, added one or more custom properties to it, created a new content node using this document type, filled in the filed and published it. Did you let Umbraco automatically create a template for you when you created the document type? Perhaps you can double check on the content node in 'Properties' if a template is selected. In the template, are you just inserting the values via <umbraco:Item ... />?
Everything on the website was created using Umbraco. The website was working fine on a laptop that we used to create the website, but as soon as we moved everything over to a server, it stopped updating. No updates,on both new pages and existing pages, are being reflected on the webiste. Thanks.
Alright, so it will be the transfer that's messing things up. I assume you can view the web site just fine on the server, which means that the database is working and Umbraco can connect to it, that you are using the same .Net framework version and the web site itself doesn't throw up any problems? When you publish new content in the Umbraco CMS it might be worth having a look in the database if the changes are coming through alright (take the node id of the one you are changing, look into table cmsPropertyData and modify the SQL script so that it only shows you the data for contentNodeId=[your-node-id]). Have you set permissions right on the sql user?
One thing to definitely double and triple check are permissions on your Umbraco files. The IUSR should have read access to everything and the network service (if using IIS6 or IIS7 with app pool identity set to network service) should have full control over the folders described in the installation docs.
Also try republishing the entire site (right-click on the top content node and select 'republish entire site') as the cache needs to be updated after a web site transfer.
Well checked the file system permission and made necessary changes. Checked the database and the changes are coming through. Tried republishing the entire site, but the changes are still not showing up on the website. Very strange .....
Content Changes not Showing up on Website

Hi,
Are you sure the page is no longer cached by your browser? Refreshing the page by pressing shift-F5 may help.
Have you tried republishing the entire website? (the option appears when you right-click the top node)

Yes, I have tried both, but doesn't seem to work. I am completely stumped.

Does the Umbraco log show any errors?
Thanks for the detailed info. Greatly appreciate it. I will check things you have outlined in your post and see what happens. Thanks, again.

Puh, very strange indeed, running a bit out of ideas here...
Try deleting the /App_Data/umbraco.config file, it should be automatically created once you hit the frontend for the first time.
I gather you already restarted the server etc?
is working on a reply...
