Gordonz Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 Just visited my shop www.bloom.co.nz and under my main navigation box "categories" appears just the word confectionery which takes me to http://nahkoheoo.com/shop/default.php?cPath=21 It was working this morning as I had an order came through. It is only on the default page of http://bloom.co.nz/shop/index.php If you go in via bestsellers to http://bloom.co.nz/shop/index.php?cPath=1 the categories navigation is fine. Any idea why??

agtlewis Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 Ok I think that if you copy your index.php file to your computer, rename it to default.php and then upload it again, so you have both an index.php and a default.php in your shop/ dir it should solve the problem.

CC Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 If you are running from a shared server, and someone else on your server is using OSC and have also cached their categories you have the danger of seeing theirs if you have the cache directory set to the default setting of /tmp/ Just go into admin->configuration->cache and chage the directory into one that sits in your site directory only. You wont have this problem anymore then. If you dont you will always have this problem when caching your site on a shared server. CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 Marie, Your web server can cache certain parts of your shop. This saves making some queries over and over again. The result is faster loading and less load on the dB server. The only real drawback I have come across is on some shared servers you and another OSC could have a common temp file which results in crossed up categories or manufacturers. It is easily rectified by making sure each account has its own temp file. I hope I explained that so its understandable. You can enable your cache in the admin under tools.

charles Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 Linda, image for item sh 88 is broken on your shop. We stand in ignorance only for questions not asked. Plug up the leaks in your knowledge base and open up a flood of understanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
