Falcon Engine and Dynamic Content

    I really like the simplicity and speed that falcon engine cache brings to my non-dynamic sites. Since Wordfence goes on every site, I really appreciate having the cache option.

    However on sites with dynamic content, Falcon Engines cached files don’t update when there is new content from other plugins. Is there any way to use Falcon Engine with this type of site and content. Especially in widgets and sidebars?

    So far, loading sidebars via ajax is the only solution I can think of that might work.

    Or clearing the cache of certain pages once per day, if that is possible?

    Thanks,

    AJD

    Hi,

    Glad to hear you’re liking Falcon! What kind of content from other plugins are not causing the cache to empty? One thought is to set a cron job to clear cache daily.

    Here is a link to the events that cause the cache to clear. Right below it, there is instructions for a simple cron job to schedule cache clearing.

    Hi, actually when I think about, it is not new content being added, but old content going away. For example, the events manager plugin. It creates a list of events, I haven’t checked that the cache clears when and event is published. But it definitely doesn’t clear at the end of the day when the older events expire and newer events take their place at the top of the list.

    Also at the same time, the list of upcoming events is updated on all sidebars throughout the site so the next upcoming event is at the top. Unless I can exclude the sidebar from the cache the best option seems to be a daily clear of the cache.

    Also, it is not exactly clear how to implement that cron function from your link. I’m not familiar with cron, so could use more specific steps.

    I would be using the add cron function in cpanel.

    Thanks.
