Describe the problem/error/question

Hi, I have a test instance running in Docker (n8nio/n8n:1.88.0) and a production instance running in a Kubernetes pod, both using the same version.
I created some custom nodes, published them, and loaded them on the production instance via the UI.
After making some changes, I republished the package and tested it on the Docker instance — everything worked fine.
However, after reinstalling the updated package on the production instance, the changes do not appear, even though I uninstalled and reinstalled it with a new version number.
How can I force n8n to fully reload the custom nodes and apply the changes?

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.88.0
  • Database (default: SQLite): postgres
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): docker, n8n
  • Operating system: windows

I would say a restart but not ideal on prod, I’ve been wondering this too any other way
