Hi,

In the site I'm developing, I include some tpl files inside override templates, let's say:

File type: {include uri="design:includes/view_icons.tpl"}

Everything works as expected, but whenever I make any change to the included tpl, I have to clear all caches to see the changes. I have this setting on the <b>siteacess/{site_name}/site.ini.append.php</b> file:

[TemplateSettings]
Debug=enabled
ShowXHTMLCode=disabled
ShowUsedTemplates=disabled
TemplateCache=disabled

Is there any way to avoid these included templates to be cached? This would realy save me a lot of time when developing a site...

Thanks in advance!!!!

Can you feel it Mr. Anderson? Closing in on you? Oh I can, I really should thank you after all. It was, after all, it was your life that taught me the purpose of all life. Purpose of life is to end.

This is because of the viewcache, just disable it while you develope the site.
Also remember to enable Template DevelopmentMode!

[TemplateSettings]
DevelopmentMode=enabled

Disabling view_cache and template_cache (cache blocks) on production server is not recommended if thats what you meant. The reason is that performance will drop considerably.

Same with DevelopmentMode, if it is enabled Exponential will make a lot more stat (something you don't want in production) calls to filesystem to see if templates are modified.

So if you have cache issues, create a seperate thread to discuss a real soulution for it!
