The cached version is created on the first request and served for any subsequent requests. After some time the cached version gets deleted and new content is loaded. The cache duration is bridge specific and can last anywhere between five minutes and 24 hours. + +## How can I make a bridge update more frequently? +You can do this if you are hosting the RSS-Bridge instance. +There are two possible ways: +- Change the programming of a particular bridge in order to reduce the specified cache duration. See [`CACHE_TIMEOUT`](https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge/wiki/BridgeAbstract#basic-metadata). +- Activate [debug mode](https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge/wiki/Debug-mode), so RSS-Bridge ignores the cache and fetches new data on every request. \ No newline at end of file
