Yes actually I was working on getting this finished up yesterday. I have an FAQ ready and 2 demos. One with the standard X-cart products and another one with over 100,000 products.

Let us know what questions you have!

Carrie,

I am ready to pull the trigger on the preorder, however I am a little worried about its functionality with my site. How does this module manage to cache "responsive" templates? (i.e Phil's Adapt, or any of the other offerings out there)

Along these lines, our prices and inventory are constantly changing. How much "slow down" can be expected from "hole punching" those aspects of the site?

Thank you!

Hey.

Thanks for the questions. I added them to our FAQ.

For responsive templates, yes a Responsive template will still operate normally. Think of it this way, X-cart gives you an HTML page in the end after it does all it▓s processing and calculations. What this module does is store that HTML page for quick retrieval. No processing involved (or minimal if you holepunch). So the HTML result is the same, it▓s just a snapshot and all the processing is done when you run the cache to generate these snap shot pages.


For the holepunching, it takes about 150 milliseconds to initialize X-cart. So you would add that much time plus what ever query you need. If it▓s something like asking for the current inventory amount for a product, that time is pretty negligible as it▓s a simple query to the database. So to holepunch the inventory would only add around 150 milliseconds.

Let me know though if this isn't helpful!

Thanks,

Carrie

Can you show just what is required to holepunch? Are these template edits?

Hi Kermit,

They are small template edits for the mini cart and we already provide the php file for it. For something not built in like the mini cart, you need to do a template edit and create a php file per the example we give.

Drop us an email and I can email you the install file so you can see an example. I'd rather not post it here because I wouldn't want someone in the future use it and it be out of date.

It is a more advanced feature of the module and we'd be happy to help provide any custom hole punching services if needed. For someone that knows X-cart it's not hard to use. So it just depends on your knowledge there.

Thanks,

Carrie

Exciting News! We now have a handler in the module that will auto regenerate the cache for specific pages. You don't even have to run the cron if you do this optional steps!

This is Great for those concerned about pricing changes, inventory changes, etc. You just put an update handler into the product modify and into the checkout calls and it will update the product and any categories it's in on the fly!

This handler will accept productid's, categoryids, manufacturerids and static page ids!

We will have this feature in the first release!

Sure will. It's completely separate from the checkout system.

Let us know if you have more questions.
