[Django]-Django CSS not updating

You have to click on Ctrl + f5 every time to update your CSS, which isn’t dope.
You can actually do something like this:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/static/css/mycss.css?{% now "U" %}"/>

The {% now “U” %} will generate a random timestamp which updates your CSS every time you reload the page. I hope this works.

In addition to the answer of Xamuel San, if you are using Jinja to link your stylesheet, then you can try the following:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href='{% static '/css/main.css' %}?{% now "U" %}'>

It perfectly worked on Chrome and Firefox. You can also use crtl+f5 to do the same but manually.

In chrome you can press Ctrl + F5. If this does not work restart apache

You can try this:

specify type attribute in the link tag/field.

Most browsers allow you to disable http caching to some degree. In Mozilla, if you’re using the Web Developer tools, there’s a setting to do this.
