 * I have been an VERY HAPPY user of Enable Media Replace for the past 4 years or
   so. Last month it stopped working. If I for instance go to the Media Library,
   click on an existing image and upload a new one to replace it, I receive the 
   message: **Your image has been replaced**!, but when I go to the website, it 
   is evident that it has not been replaced. The new image is no where to be found
   in the Media Library. Please advise – I hope a solution can be found because 
   I really love this plugin.

 * Hi [@pauline6112](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauline6112/) ,
 * Thank you for your message and for using our plugin! 🙂
 * Based on what you described, this seems more likely to be a caching issue than
   a plugin issue. Caching can cause the old image to continue displaying even after
   it has been replaced.
 * Could you please purge all of your website caches, including any CDN cache if
   applicable, and then check whether the issue still occurs?
 * We haven’t received similar reports from other customers, so this is most likely
   cache related and should be resolved once the cache is cleared.
 * We will be here if you will need any assistance further!
 * All the best,
