Summary
This module enables caching for products list and detail view.
Description
This module speeds up your shop by enabling cache for product list and detailed product view. The cache is generated in relation to products, so it will be cleared if product information are changed. If someone buys a product (so the stock is updated) the module clears the cache of all affected products as well.
How to install
Installation is via MagentoConnect
How to Configure
1. You have to make sure that none of your modules is overwriting the blocks
- Catalog/Product_View
- Catalog/Product_List
If there is any module overwriting the blocks, you must make sure that either this block or the other block inherits from the opposite and that the most upper class rewrites the base block. Once this is complete you can enable the Catalog Cache in the backend.
2. Change the following xml-configuration in the file app/design/frontend/[[YOUR_PACKAGE]]/[[YOUR_SKIN]]/layout/catalog.xml
< block type="catalog/product_view" name="product.info" template="catalog/product/view.phtml" >
to
< block type="catalogcache/product_view" name="product.info" template="catalog/product/view.phtml" >
Catalog->Catalog and refer to the Frontend-section. There you can find two entries: * Use advanced Cache for products page * Use advanced Cache for products list page Set these
