Been busy making a php website and noticed my changes do not show on the site so I made a file and went to it, then deleted it and I was still able to access the deleted file, the file also does not update on the server once I access it once so if i make a folder called 123 and a folder inside called asdf and access the site if I add another folder to 123 It wont show up on the site but it will show if I make it inside asdf at least until I access it. Was thinking it might be a caching issue until I used my phone to access the site and everything was loading like normal including changes until today when my phone stopped getting the changes as well, I do use an extension to clear my cache for every 5 mins or so and have cleared it manually.

  In my experience, this will be browser cache related. If you're 100% confident that it's not browser cache, then does your site or host utilise any website caching like cloudflare.

  I agree this does sound like some type of caching. Sometimes ISPs even perform caching to lower network traffic, but changes on the server side happen instantly unless there are various levels of caching tools like @keat63 mentioned.
