Frog CMS

Tuupola, I agree about the safe mode. Our server doesn’t use safe mode, so I wouldn’t conclude that this is the cause of the problem. I can provide you with access to our server info if you think that would help.

I do have a question Tuupola,

Is there a reason that when a page is changed, that all other pages need to be re-cached? I would have thought it would be possible to replace just that file, if it exists. This would mean that the editor would just need to ensure that they view pages as they edit them, to ensure it is pre-cached.

Update: I just notcied that it does that when you actually edit ‘anything’ in the backend. I think I follow your logic for doing that … what if changing a snippet or layout affected numerous pages in one go etc etc … hmmm, interesting dilema.

Why would you want to precache? It will be automatically cached next time someone access the page.

If a page was large or simply had alot of otherwise-dynamic content (we’re talking Frog snippets, functions etc) to draw in, I was thinking that is where using a cache solution would be most appropriate. Indeed in many (if not most) cases the first visitor would have to experience below-optimum performance, so the author of the content should have the honours I feel.

I am just nitpicking though, Tuupola … I totally understand the potential dilemas as to why you have opted to do it the way you have.

On a sidenote, the Windows and Linux tests have proved flawless for me (Windows first white-flash aside). If you’re interested in testing the changes at your end, I’d be happy to fix you up.

Love this plugin. :) However, there seems to be an issue with the downloaded ZIP (v0.3.5) from the project page: the views folder and its contents seem to be missing. Same with the ZIP and TAR on GitHub. I had to manually recreate the missing files from the code posted on GitHub in order to get Funky Cache working.

Sorry, I meant the file from your website. Just to be sure, I re-downloaded the file from the link you just posted, but I still don’t get any views folder in it. Here’s a screenshot of the file contents:

Hmm… you’re right. I opened the file with 7zip and sure enough, the views folder was there. Checked the same file with WinRAR and the folder was gone. Weird.

Likely you’ve run into the same problem I did with some files being missing after extracting plugin. I suggest you re-download (just to be on the safe side) then open the downloaded TAR.GZ with 7-Zip and extract the file contents. Don’t use WinRAR or other archivers — that’s what caused the problem for me. If you don’t want to install a new program, then a portable version of 7-Zip is available. Re-upload the plugin files to your server.

Are all files present? The file and folder structure should be something like:

\funky_cache\disable.php
\funky_cache\enable.php
\funky_cache\FunkyCacheController.php
\funky_cache\index.php
\funky_cache\README.textile

\funky_cache\images
\funky_cache\images\cancel.png
\funky_cache\images\delete.png
\funky_cache\images\help.png
\funky_cache\images\page_copy.png
\funky_cache\images\pencil.png

\funky_cache\lib
\funky_cache\lib\DateDifference.php

\funky_cache\models
\funky_cache\models\FunkyCachePage.php
\funky_cache\models\Record.php

\funky_cache\views
\funky_cache\views\documentation.php
\funky_cache\views\index.php
\funky_cache\views\settings.php
\funky_cache\views\sidebar.php

If they’re all in the file you download, then check to make sure they’ve been uploaded properly (file uploads sometimes go awry).

Oh, I forgot to ask whether you’re using the latest stable version (0.9.5) of Frog CMS or the r367 dev version. I know Funky Cache works with the 0.9.5, but I don’t know about the dev.

Well i’ve come a bit closer to the answer.
I reinstalled the Frog CMS on XAMPP for Windows.
When I install funcky cache the correct way it works fine.

But now for my situation:
i have a different name for my admin folder:
// The directory name of your Frog CMS administration (you will need to change it manually)
define(‘ADMIN_DIR’, ‘beheer’);

funcky cache generated this .htacces:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
    # Administration URL rewriting.
    RewriteRule ^beheer(.*)$ beheer/index.php?$1 [L,QSA]
    # Rewrite index to check for static.
    RewriteCond  %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/cache/index.html -f
    RewriteRule ^$ /cache/index.html [L,QSA]
    # Rewrite to check for cached page from cached folder.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^GET$
    RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/cache/%{REQUEST_URI} -f
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /cache/$1 [L,QSA]    
    RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_URI} !-f
    RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_URI} !-d
    RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_URI} !-l
    # Main URL rewriting.
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?PAGE=$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>

When I use that .htaccess file there’s no tab in the admin.
I really would like to use a different foldername.
So where to go from here?

Oops. I have word admin hardcoded in file funky_cache/index.php. Will fix.

I used your fix and it works fine now.
May I suggest to you to use both ALT and TITLE attributes on your images?
It helps gaining better accessibility for some users.

Also the generated .htaccess needs to be looked at,
it doesn’t take the value of, define(‘ADMIN_DIR’, ‘foo’);

I’ve allready edited funky cache to my needs:
dutch translation
alt and title attributes where needed
