    Hi,

    I read in your guide about caching. I use Comet Cache FYI.

    But…

    Is there any way you could adjust this to perhaps allow us to enable a option in a particular block to allow for pulling the next ad upon page load so they can evenly rotate even with cacheing enabled only for that particular block of code to refresh it? It think that would be a great new feature.

    I really need and want cache to run on all my pages and do not really want to turn it off.

    But, if you could come up with a innovative way to refresh only a particular code block IF we enable it to do so to grab the next ad in rotation whether or not the rest of the page is cached, that would be awesome.

    Or, is this already possible now? Let me know if so…

    Let me know your thoughts…

    Rotation using |rotate| works this way: Each time the plugin is called a random code version (code between |rotate| separator) is inserted.

    When the page is cached the plugin is not called as the page is not generated. This is the purpose of caching.

    It would be possible to write some javascript code to randomly show one of the versions. However, this approach may cause problems with some ad networks as for bots all the versions (or none) would be “visible”.

    I’m open to suggestions on how to solve this.

    Great. Sounds good. I will do some digging. In the meantime, if others see this and have ideas please post.

    I will circle back later . . .
