Answer 1

There is a simple way to refresh a page in SPIP when you have caching issues : pressing the Reprocess page button on the public site (as said by Serge) or adding ?var_mode=recalcul as a parameter of your URL.

Answer 2

I think the matter is in website cache. SPIP is hard caching HTML and images. Try to clean cache via private area (under Maintenance button in SPIP 3) or press "Reprocess page" button on the front-end.

Answer 3

With your FTP connection go to the SPIP root directory, then find the /tmp directory open it and clear\empty the /cache directory inside it. This directory contains temporary files & cache files.
