Cache is turned off, but VM gets still cached

[MAD King]

I just noticed that Joomla 3.4.1 is still caching some of VM 3.0.9 with the configuration Cache off.
Always cached is com_onepage and com_virtuemart_cats

Confirmed. Same problem with mod_virtuemart_product , for example, on product detail page.
I have Joomla cache is on, but module caching is off:


But, module still caching. As a result on all pages i see same "featured" products. When i do cache clean, module displayed new products. But, there are not changed before i go to clean cache again
Example page: http://www.zebra-tara.ru/catalogue/plastic-boxes/pb-300/400300270-02-524-detail

there is not changed when you serfing this site:

I also confirm it. Dear developers please pay attention to it. Did somebody find any solutions to fix that?

I can confirm that. Even if switching the cache off inside the VM category module it always creates cache entries.

Hi,
This is the fix for correct caching:
file : JOOMLAROOT\modules\mod_virtuemart_product\mod_virtuemart_product.php
after the line 55 :

Code Select Expand

$key = 'products'.$category_id.'.'.$max_items.'.'.$filter_category.'.'.$display_style.'.'.$products_per_row.'.'.$show_price.'.'.$show_addtocart.'.'.$Product_group.'.'.$virtuemart_currency_id;

add:

Code Select Expand

if($filter_category) $key .= 'c'.vRequest::getInt('virtuemart_category_id', 0);

The current bug comes because cache key does not includes current category.

This bug should only when you use category filter.

Greets,
Patrick

P.S: THis is fix for product module.
For the categories, i have give a fix to the team, but because they don''t understand the fix, they have never added my fix(or another fix) for this problem.

[MAD King]

Cannot confirm this. I do not use category filter.

[franzpeter]

There is something inside the Joomla cache configuration called JLIB_FORM_VALUE_CACHE_vmfile what seems to be active even if not activated.

[franzpeter]

@studio 42: which file do you mean to add the code?

[Studio 42]

Cannot confirm this. I do not use category filter.

this is not the same cache.
My fix is for 'mod_product' cache, for your problem, i have reported the bug seens 1 month, but noone in the current team, tried to apply(or fix with another solution) this bug for com_virtuemart_cats

[Studio 42]

Sorry file is :
YOURJOOMLA\modules\mod_virtuemart_product\mod_virtuemart_product.php

There is something inside the Joomla cache configuration called JLIB_FORM_VALUE_CACHE_vmfile what seems to be active even if not activated.

It is just a copy of the cache "file", with 2-3 fixes in it.

For the categories, i have give a fix to the team, but because they don''t understand the fix, they have never added my fix(or another fix) for this problem.

I dont remind that I got a fix, or the hint that the category id is missing

Hi,
i speak for com_virtuemart_cats, follow the link : https://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=129548.msg445874#msg445874

The problem is we're talking about two different bugs

[Milbo]

yes and your construction was not working. I took the hint to delete not just virtuemart_cats but also mod_virtuemart_category
