 * I have a WordPress site that I recently made two changes to:
 * – Changed a .png to have a transparent background
    – Changed an HTML file a page
   calls via an iframe
 * Neither change shows up on my browser. I’ve don’t the cntl-F5 clear refresh on
   my browser, but no joy.
 * Does WordPress cache? (without explicitly adding in a Plugin)? If so, how do 
   I clear it? If not, what is going on?

 * WordPress does not do anything with caching static resources you mentioned.
 * Caching headers for static assets are sent to visitors browser by your web server
   software.
    You can tune up them using .htaccess (for Apache webserver) [https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_expires.html](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_expires.html)
