The /photos page of my website still exists even once removed

Not sure if this belongs under “Getting Started” or “Developers” but I wanted to flag something very basic:

Early on, I deleted the /photos page using the web UI/UX (“delete page” option). However, the /photos URL still remains accessible and does not 404 as expected.

I’ve also noticed that other test pages deleted the same way seem to persist or cache in a way that doesn’t seem normal, meaning they stay active even after deletion, beyond what I would expect for typical cache behavior.

Is there an extra step required to fully purge deleted pages, or could this be a server-side issue?

When your blog feels out of sync, triggering a full rebuild from the logs page usually does the trick.
