Edit: Well I've discovered if you refresh the preview page that is generated, it will then update and display your changes.

Courses Plus Student 1,650 PointsIf refreshing doesn't work then try clicking 'file' then click 'download work space'. Once you have done this it will show your html file in a window. Double click on your html file and select a browser to open this file. I chose IE and it seemed to work for me! Happy coding :)

16,510 PointsAs Jake says, make sure that your files are saved after you have made changes. Then after that if your changes are still not appearing then it may be an issue to do with your web browser caching the older version of the page.
So it might be worth closing down the workspace or even your entire browser and then reopen them.

Courses Plus Student 773 Pointsso I closed down everything and restarted the course track today. My changes are saved in the workspace from the previous day but I still run into the same problem with the previous story showing up when i hit the eye button.
Is there something in the Google Chrome setting i need to change?

1,450 PointsElliott, I had same issue while using Google Chrome. I tested the Workspace using Safari, and I now see my changes in the workspace reflected in the Preview. I suspect there is a Chrome issue.

13,965 PointsThis might be a silly question, but are you saving your changes? If so, are you saving those changes in the correct file?
