Weird Caching problem

Friday 27 January 2006 1:35:30 am

Hi there, I'm actually optimizing the speed of a ez3 website. I activated every option in site.ini (templatecompile, viewcaching, templatecompress, templateoptimize and so on).
It works really _REALLY_ fast and smoothly, but there's a problem.
I created a left menu navigation which shows the childrens under the current node, and if you arrived at the last level it keeps on showing the other elements at the same level.
If I enable the TemplateCompile option, it works ok the first time it loads it, and until the cache expires you can see this menu, then after 2 hours if you try to open again one of the pages you no longer see the left menu.
I guess it could be a key problem in cache-block or something like that?

This is the code snippet which doesn't work:

{cache-block keys=array($leftMenus, $module_result.node_id)}
					<div id="leftmenu">
<ul id="sottosezioni">

{def $conteggio=fetch('content', 'list_count', hash('parent_node_id', $module_result.node_id ) )}
{if $conteggio|ne(0)}
	{let leftMenus=treemenu($module_result.path,$module_result.node_id,true(),sub($node.depth,1),1)}
	{section name=leftMenu loop=$leftMenus}
	{section show=$leftMenu:item.id|eq($module_result.node_id)}
	<li><a href={$leftMenu:item.url_alias|ezurl} title="{$leftMenu:item.text}" class="active">{$leftMenu:item.text}</a></li>
	{section-else}
	<li><a href={$leftMenu:item.url_alias|ezurl} title="{$leftMenu:item.text}">{$leftMenu:item.text}</a></li>
	{/section}
	{/section}
	{/let}
{else}
	{let leftMenus=treemenu($module_result.path,$module_result.node_id,true(),sub($node.depth,2),1)}
	{section name=leftMenu loop=$leftMenus}
	{section show=$leftMenu:item.id|eq($module_result.node_id)}
	<li><a href={$leftMenu:item.url_alias|ezurl} title="{$leftMenu:item.text}" class="active">{$leftMenu:item.text}</a></li>
	{section-else}
	<li><a href={$leftMenu:item.url_alias|ezurl} title="{$leftMenu:item.text}">{$leftMenu:item.text}</a></li>
	{/section}
	{/section}
	{/let}	
{/if}
</ul>
					</div>
{/cache-block}

Thank you thank you!
You solved my problem! Now it works ok!
And the trick of putting expiry=0 works flawlessly.
I also planned to use the subtree_expiry feature on some items which could benefit from it :)
I will pay you a beer hehe
