[resolved] [Plugin: Facelift Image Replacment (FLIR)] The Cache is SH*T (4 posts)

    Hi, the plugin is a great idea... but but but,

    when it comes time to delete the plugin from the server, you will encounter the "monster" which is the cache folder with its endless files. The monster rears its face when you try to delete the thousands of files and it just won't work.

    Seriously, try to delete cache after it has been created and is big, I dare you! Forget about it, the ftp program will try, but you will fail at deleting this awful thing.

    The coding that makes the cache for this program is terrible, and same goes for the stand-alone version.

    This website seems to be on the right track however: http://typeface.neocracy.org/ check it out for a small text replacement javascript that works! Please change your plugin over to this idea, as Corey's plugin is a bit bulky... great idea, but (underdeveloped).

    I agree with you about the cahce being a monster. I'll change the settings to clear the cache more often in the meantime.

    I took a brief look at the script you recommended and it looks good but I do think there are a couple of items that will need adding (like :hover pseudo-selector)

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Wow, I looked back and realized I could have phrased this topic question about a million times nicer (story of my life). Thanks for the really cool plugin.

    I guess big cache folder can be controled via settings in plugin admin panel: Cache Cleanup Frequency and Cache Keep Time.
