Website coming soon

[rkrishna]

Hi,

I created a wordpress site over 24hours ago and I am still getting the 'Website Coming Soon' page.

Thanks,
Rohit

Please clear your browser cache and try again, the coming soon page tend to get stuck at times.

The site works fine for me.

Clear the browser cache as @Anna said.

Clear the browser cache and Flush your DNS.

Flush Your DNS. On your computer (Windows), Start -> search for Run -> cmd, hit enter -> type in command prompt the following:

ipconfig /flushdns

Please stop telling people to do this. It affects everything on every protocol, not just one site in one web browser.

Sorry, I edited it. I changed it after I read the other post.

hello, Flushing the ipconfig /flushdns I flushed ip but it doesn't show up in chrome but it does show up in internet explore domain name http://vintagetoyadvertisements.com

The key thing to do is clear the browser cache, that's where the coming soon page resides. Flushing DNS does only have affect if the domain doesn't properly resolve (which it definitely do when you get the coming soon page).

The reason it works in Internet explorer and not in chrome, is more then likely due to the coming soon page being cached in the chrome before the system had properly updated itself to know what content it expected to show on the domain, while you never opened it until after the system was indeed fully updated with the new domain and what content to show in IE.

Okay I went into google chrome's history and there's a button that says clear browsing data and that worked but it made me have to remember all my passwords again but that's okay. I always used IE for browsing but I'm hooked on chrome, it's a lot better. I tired everything I could think until I said let me look at the chrome history. IE in under tools. I haven't use dos commands in a very long time and forgotten a lot of them. That was in the 80's until windows came out hiding dos in the back ground. Thanks for the help. They call me Timothy Gadgetman. Peace

For future reference, in Chrome you can go to your History and remove individual sites/pages — you don't have to kill your entire history to fix a cache problem on a single site/page.

Thanks I saw that once I hit the clear browsing data but sometimes you have to remember stuff to keep the brain in check.
