TOPIC:

I made a few very small changes late the evening of 7/8 that will require users to clear their browser cache to get the update.

Please see the following for how to do this: support.toastmastersclubs.org/component/...earing-browser-cache

Steve - I cleared my cache, which finally enabled me to get into the website. However, performance is way slow. Sometimes 30-45 seconds to change or refresh a page. It made my job of updating several agendas veeeerrrryyyyy ssssslllllloooowwww. Is there still work being done to correct this?

Unfortunately, I think it may be all the people hitting the server who have not yet cleared their cache.
We may need to send out an email to get people to do this.

I will probably put some sort of automatic mechanism for this in place in the future--less headaches that way.
We have no such automatic mechanism in place for that now.

(Yes, the changes I made were necessary.)

Any suggestions to clear cache from a Mac -- using Safari?

Per Wikipedia:

Safari

For version 4 and newer:
Hold down the ⇧ Shift key and click the Reload toolbar button.

For version 3 and older:
Hold down the ⌘ Cmd key and press R. This kind of "regular" reload will usually bypass the cache.

Note that Apple claims that clicking the "Reload" toolbar button has the same effect as ⌘ Cmd+R, but this is not true; frequently the button will not bypass the cache.

TOOL BAR ICON in upper right corner..

select RESET SAFARI

then a box pops up with a bunch of options..

"Remove all website data" is the one that is important. (that would include the cache)
