Cache Questions

    First off, I was wondering how the cache works in terms of YouTube API calls. Does it make a call to the API each time a page utilizing the plugin is loaded in someone’s browser, than cache that on the client side (meaning if that user cleared their browser cache and reloaded the page it would make another call to the API), or does it cache that more server side, so once a cache is created, no matter how many people view the page the plugin won’t make more calls to the API until the cache is cleared? I’m just trying to figure out how close I’m going to get to my API query quota with the cache enabled. With it disabled, I exceeded the 10,000 query limit fairly quickly.

    Also, what’s the difference between the “Once a day” and “Once daily” timeout settings under the “Cache” tab. They seem like the same setting. Is there a specific time that either one of them triggers?

    Hi @dmahannah

    Thank you for great questions.

    With cache function, data playlist or gallery will be stored into server.
    If you have 100 users one day, they request to your page, we just have one request to server API only. – it is One a day/ Once Daily setting.

    Else, you have 200 users and with setting weekly cache clearing. Only one request to YouTube API.

    Hope that convenient for your plan.

    Best regards,

    Anthony
