browser cache does not update when css is changed

    Hi,
    I am using the plugin recommended by woocommerce itself for function.php and css rules: theme-customisations
    https://github.com/woocommerce/theme-customisations

    When I change those rules in the css in the:
    /wp-content/plugins/theme-customisations/custom/style.css
    I don’t see the changes if I don’t clear the browser cache.

    If I open the css from the developer inspector of a browser, I see that it actually still loads the old version from the cache and that the last modification date is old and wrong.

    I think the problem may lie in the query string that does not change and always remains “? Ver = 5.5.3”, which is the same as the version of wordpress in use.

    As a cache plugin I use Siteground Optimizer and Cloudflare.

    How could I solve?

    Thank you

    Hi there,

    This is a fairly complex development topic. I’m going to leave it open for a bit to see if anyone is able to chime in to help you out.

    I can also recommend the WooCommerce Developer Resources Portal for resources on developing for WooCommerce.

    You can also visit the WooCommerce Facebook group or the #developers channel of the WooCommerce Community Slack. We’re lucky to have a great community of open-source developers for WooCommerce, and many of our developers hang out there, as well.
