Version 0.5 works on 4.0.5 too. But I only wrap the tag around “expensive” tags like stw_category_tree and not the whole page as suggested in the instructions.

Using it this way reduced page load times on those pages significantly, from 20-30 seconds to 1 or 2 seconds (my site has around 100 categories in 3 levels of hierarchy).

Hi – zem_cache was working beautifully for me. Now, some of the pages it is used on displays the comment “cache bypassed”.

Any idea how this happened and would someone please help get it working again? Zem_cache is important for my site because it greatly reduces the load times & server load for some of my pages (see my post above).

Things I’ve done to try and fix the problem:

1. checked to make sure tag is okay on my page template;
2. reinstalled zem_cache
3. flushed cache
4. changed tmp directory

Thanks for any help.

Hello
I’ve extended this plugin a little bit. So ctx marked blocks are now saved in a different folder named noreset. With this you are able to delete id files independently from ctx files. Maybe it helps someone …
