+# How to Verify You're Seeing the New Site
+
+## The Issue
+You mentioned seeing the "old site" on localhost. Here's what's actually happening:
+
+### Current Server Status
+- ✅ **Port 5000**: Your NEW SkyArtShop site (Node.js backend)
+- ❌ **Port 80**: NOTHING running (nginx and apache stopped)
+
+## Why You Might See "Old Site"
+
+### 1. Browser Cache
+Your browser is showing cached pages from before cleanup.
+
+**Solution:**
+- Press `Ctrl + Shift + Delete`
+- Select "Cached images and files"
+- Clear cache
+- Refresh page (`Ctrl + F5` for hard refresh)
+
+### 2. Wrong URL
+You need to use the PORT in the URL.
+
+**Wrong:** `http://localhost/` ❌
+**Correct:** `http://localhost:5000/` ✅
+
+### 3. Windows Port Forwarding
+If you're on Windows accessing the Linux server via RDP, Windows might have port forwarding configured.
+
+## How to Test Right Now
+
+### Test 1: From Linux Terminal
+```bash
+curl -s http://localhost:5000/ | grep -o "<title>[^<]*</title>"
+```
+**Should show:** `<title>Sky Art Shop</title>`
+
+### Test 2: Check What's Actually Running
+```bash
+./verify-localhost.sh
+```
+**Should show:** Only port 5000 active
+
+### Test 3: Check Server Logs
+```bash
+pm2 logs skyartshop --lines 20
+```
+**Should show:** Serving from `/media/pts/Website/SkyArtShop/website/`
+
+## Access Your New Site
+
+### Correct URLs
+- **Homepage**: http://localhost:5000/
+- **Admin Login**: http://localhost:5000/admin/login.html
+- **Admin Dashboard**: http://localhost:5000/admin/dashboard.html
+
+### From Windows Browser
+If accessing from Windows:
+1. Find your Linux server IP (run `ip addr` on Linux)
+2. Use: `http://YOUR_LINUX_IP:5000/`
+3. Example: `http://192.168.1.100:5000/`
+
+## Verification Steps
+
+Run these commands to prove the new site is running:
+
+```bash
+# Check server status
+pm2 status
+
+# Test homepage
+curl -s http://localhost:5000/home.html | grep "<title>"
+
+# Test admin
+curl -s http://localhost:5000/admin/login.html | grep "<title>"
+
+# Verify no port 80
+curl -I http://localhost/ 2>&1 | head -1
+# Should show: "Failed to connect" or no response
+```
+
+## Quick Fix
+
+```bash
+# Clear any browser cache, then use the correct URL:
+http://localhost:5000/
+# NOT
+http://localhost/
+```
+
+## Summary
+
+✅ **Your new cleaned site IS running**
+✅ **It's on port 5000, not port 80**
+❌ **Port 80 is disabled (correct for development)**
+
+The "old site" you're seeing is probably:
+1. Browser cache showing old pages
+2. Accessing wrong URL (missing :5000)
+3. Windows port forwarding if on remote desktop
+
+**Solution**: Use `http://localhost:5000/` and clear browser cache!
