# Link update problem

 * Hi,
 * We’ve recently updated our main url from amf.ch/new to amf.ch. I had a series
   of links to media uploads, which then switched from amf.ch/new/mydocument.pdf
   to amf.ch/mydocument.pdf.
 * This change was not automated in everywhere in the website (buttons, pictures,
   sliders, etc.), so I changed these links by hand on the whole website. They’re
   correct in the editor mode, but not in the public pages. I’ve updated each page
   and went back to check that this was correctly saved in the editor mode, which
   it is.
 * I’ve tried refreshing a page 5 times, but still no changes. How can I get this
   to be effective in my public website? It’s a big problem for navigation as many
   buttons and pictures link to other pages.
 * Thanks for your help!

 * When your domain name or URLs change there are additional concerns. The files
   and database can be moved, however references to the old domain name or location
   will remain in the database, and that can cause issues with links or theme display.
 * Please review this help guide for three options to avoid that:
