Caching problem after migration to multisite

    This is the first time I’m working with multisite.
    After migration of a website to a multisite (the url of the site remained the same), the homepage shows the “old” version of the site from time to time, the one I had just after migration (with a broken slider at the top of the page). The strange thing is that it switches between 3 versions of homepage aleatory, so it seems to be a cache problem.
    So far :
    – I disabled and cleared all cache plugins that were present on all sites of multisite.
    – I flushed the DNS cache and I waited a week after the migration, nothing changed.
    – I completely removed the old leftover database, so it can’t be pointing to the old site (just in case).

    I would be grateful if someone has any insight into this.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Be sure it’s not local caching that’s the issue. It doesn’t sound like the issue, but I mention it for the sake of completeness. If it’s not local nor the site’s caching, then it must be caching implemented by the host or some proxy service, or maybe even an ISP. The fact you randomly get different versions means they likely come from different caching servers which are being load balanced.

    The fact the issue has not resolved itself over time indicates an issue with cache flushing, which if within the host, ISP, or proxy service, would require their tech support to resolve.
