 * Hello,
 * Whenever I try to edit a theme-related setting (like html/css/php, exclude category,
   etc) through the admin insterface the changes won’t show on the website until
   I go to themes and deactivate/re-activate the theme itself.
 * I recently moved the blog to a new server, but the paths haven’t changed. Please
   help.
 * Thanks,
    G

 * Make sure you don’t have any wordpress plugins installed that cache content. 
   Also make sure you clear your browser’s cache. Other than that it shouldn’t require
   you to deactivate and re-activate it to make it update

 * I think I found the problem, in wp-content/gt-cache, which is for global translator.
   I have deleted the plugin way back, and looks like these 600 files of at least
   10kb are it’s leftovers. Still deleting, will post back with results.
