## Before you finish

**Not seeing your change?**

Your browser may be showing a copy it saved earlier. Open the page in a private window, or press Ctrl + F5 to reload it fresh (Cmd + Shift + R on a Mac).

If your site has a caching plugin, clear its cache too. There is usually a button for it in the bar along the top of the dashboard. Still the old version after a few minutes? Ask whoever looks after your site to clear the server cache.

### Good to know

The Verse block is for poetry, song lyrics and other writing where the line breaks are part of the meaning. It keeps your lines as you type them, in the site's normal font, which is the main difference from Preformatted.

Make sure you have permission to publish lyrics or poems that are not your own.
