Hi @heavy pike. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Based on the information provided in the extracts, it seems like you're experiencing an issue with dynamic pages not updating or rendering correctly when navigating between pages using the Next.js Link component. This issue has been reported by several users in the Next.js community.

One possible solution to this issue is to use router.refresh() and router.replace(url) as a workaround. This forces a refresh of the current page and then replaces the current page with the new URL. Here's an example:

router.refresh()
router.replace(url)

However, please note that this is a workaround and may not solve the root cause of the issue. The issue might be related to how Next.js handles client-side navigation and caching of dynamic pages.

For more information, you can refer to the following GitHub issues where this problem has been discussed:

Dynamic page not updating on subsequent navigations using Link component (https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/49300)
component not showing when navigating between pages (https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/45663)

If the problem persists, it might be a good idea to create a new issue in the Next.js GitHub repository with a detailed description of your problem and a minimal reproduction case. This will help the Next.js team to better understand and address the issue.

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

To implement router.refresh() and router.replace(url), you first need to import the useRouter hook from 'next/router'. Then, you can use these methods inside a function in your component. Here's an example:

import { useRouter } from 'next/router'

export default function Page() {
  const router = useRouter()

  const handleNavigation = () => {
    router.refresh()
    router.replace('/new-url')
  }

  return (
    <button type="button" onClick={handleNavigation}>
      Navigate
    </button>
  )
}

In this example, when the button is clicked, the handleNavigation function is called. This function first calls router.refresh() to refresh the current page, and then router.replace('/new-url') to navigate to a new URL without adding a new entry into the browser’s history stack.

Please replace '/new-url' with the actual path you want to navigate to.

For more information, you can refer to the Next.js documentation on `router.refresh` (https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/use-router) and `router.replace` (https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/api-reference/functions/use-router#routerreplace).
