Problems with content on modified pages 
Autor: Ad BakkerHi,
I use W5 for a long time. Since the last update there were a few occasions I could not close W5 due the fact it stayed running continue. After stopping W5 (taskmanager) I could start W5 again, with a message about not closing the program correctly. I reconize this from years ago with W5.
Now I'm working at updating my content and this morning I saw that my text corrections didn't apear in de uploaded version of the website. This is something I didn't see the last weeks with updated iext.
I followed the suggestion to use more TXT modules and another formatting. Also this is nog effective. My deadline is August 1 2026 te relaese the new version. Somebody knows a solution?

Hello Ad,
I am sorry about the issue.
Are the modifications visible in preview mode?
Could you give an example of one of the changes you made, and how the text appears for you?

Hi Eric,
Yes all was visible in preview mode. Since this morning I see some changes not in the preview.
Is it an option to complete reinstall W5Pro after a complte uninstall of W5Pro ?
The website is working due the oldpages so perhaps the reinstall can do some thins.
BTW in this window I need two ticks at the spacebar for a space, at the beginning it was correct ;-)

Hello,
so the preview is also currently not showing the up-to-date contents for your page?
If so, I would recommend a clean reinstall as you mentioned.
The folders to be deleted with these steps usually do not contain any projects, that by default are stored at C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents\Incomedia\WebSite X5 - Pro, but you can check their contents to make sure of this.
1) Uninstall the software normally, from the Windows panel.
2) Go to the path C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Incomedia and delete the folder corresponding to your version of the software (it should be WebSite X5 – Pro).
3) Go to the path C:\Program Files and, if it is present, delete the folder corresponding to your version of the software (it should be WebSite X5 – Pro)
4) Do the same at the path C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Programs, deleting the folder WebSite X5 – Pro if present.
5) Restart the PC.
6) With VPN (if you use one), antivirus and firewall temporarily disabled, run as admin the installer you can find here: https://www.websitex5.com/download/v2026.2/wsx5_pro.exe
Make sure that WebSite X5 is set as an exception for VPN/antivirus/firewall afterwards, so that it is possible to leave them active when using the software.

Addition:
It seems that all pages I modified are not showing the modifications in preview and Live.
When I go back to the page in the devellopment area themodifications are still visible there.
It's not only text, also other objects will not update.
Action on my side:
I will restart all desktops I work on.
After that I will test again. If all stays the same I will go back to earlier versions and will start again from the backup where we have not the current problem.

Eric,
I did a complete uninstall inclusive registry cleaning. After reinstall all went well but with opening W5pro the old versions were still available. After import an version 2 stage earlier the same problems still not working.
I have imported 4 versions earlier and that was working as it should do.
For me it's redo the upgrades and look to avoid the problems.
There is one thing that could be a cause for my problems. In the version after the one i use now, I did a test with the dynamic data object, so the extion we changed to .php Could that be a reason?
Thanks I keep you informed.

Hello Ad,
by old versions, are you referring to previous versions of the project you are working on?
The extension of the page or presence of the Dynamic Content should have no influence on this behavior, as PHP is not running when in preview mode, but you are already noticing issues in this phase.
Try to make gradual backups while adding the recent changes again, it could help in identifying what exactly triggered the issue.
I remain available.

I made already gradual backups, so I went back 4 versions of thius week.
I did start a new project based on that beackup. I rearanged everything to my data SSD in my desktop, so there is a clean sheet to work from. Further I will do a step by step renew for the pages with a backup after ezch hour.
Thanks for the support, keep you informed.
