I have a hikashop module which displays 2 random products from a category.

I'd like to use the cache plugin which comes with joomla 1.5 but when i activate it it also caches the random product module - and the same products appear every time the page is loaded.

Is there a way to stop this module from being cached? Ican't see it in the advanced parameters options as normal?

Thanks,

Phil

Joomla 1.5 does not handle correctly cache per modules and caches all the modules you have.
The only solution is to deactivate caching.

I've managed to get round this problem by using the jotcache extension:

hi,
I have activated memory cache on my joomla 2.5, progressive handling, &#96;file&#96;, 45 minutes, and get this error:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134728217 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 15505312 bytes) in /home/schrijfk/public_html/libraries/joomla/cache/storage/file.php on line 142

When I look into the cache I see a huge cache file in the modules folder, to solve the error I deleted and purged cache but after 40 minutes there was already a 1.78 mb file with just Hikashop scripting. If I look into it seems an endless list of repetitions,
so I am wondering if I am doing something wrong in the configuration of my hikashop enterprise or that Hikashop is not the problem,
thank you,
Damiaan

HikaShop is not the problem. It has no control over how the system caches the pages.

I know this is an old post, but how did you configure jotcache to allow caching on all but hikashop?
