 * Hi ,
 * I have been trying to replace my plugin’s screenshot using TortoiseSvn. Earlier,
   I uploaded screenshot-1 and screenshot-2. As I am currently using a dark color
   scheme , I wanted to change the screenshots. I used commit. After 2 weeks of 
   the first attempt, I tried today once again to change the images by deleting 
   and then uploading by using commit. It still do not seem to work. It still shows
   the light scheme images unless you click on each of the images individually. 
   Only then the dark scheme images are shown. Looking forward for suggestions. 
   Thanks in advance for your time.

 * Try updating something in the `readme.txt` file – for example, change the “Tested
   up to” entry to 7.1 (since that version is being released on Wednesday) or add
   some other text. That might reset the cache that generates the page, and it will
   then display the correct screenshots.

 * Thanks for your feedback [@threadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/threadi/).
   I have updated the readme.txt file but the new screenshots are still not coming
   up unless I click on the old screenshots. I think I will just release a new version
   of my plugin and that would likely do the trick.

 * I’ve since noticed that this appears to be a known bug. There’s a ticket for 
   it on Meta Trac: [https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8331](https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8331)
