Hi all,
Thought I would share a top tip for developers/theme editors if you weren't aware already. You can turn off Opencart cache.
When in the dashboard after logging in, hit the gear icon top right of the page and turn both cache's off.
Took a while for me to find this so hopefully it helps someone.
I found this article helpful: https://webocreation.com/blog/opencart- ... loper-tips
Thanks, useful to know.

Doesn't seem to work for me. Turned them off and template is still caching. Only way I can see new changes is go through their editor. Which as a developer is total waste of time.
I just call this function in startup.php controller ( only when I am developing).
It clears the caches.
It clears the caches.
Code: Select all
/* reset_cache() deletes theme cache only */
/* reset_cache('all') deletes theme and file caches */
function reset_cache ($scope = 'theme') {
// delete theme cache files
$directories = glob(DIR_CACHE . '*', GLOB_ONLYDIR);
if ($directories) {
foreach ($directories as $directory) {
$files = glob($directory . '/*');
foreach ($files as $file) {
if (is_file($file)) unlink($file);
}
if (is_dir($directory)) rmdir($directory);
}
}
// delete normal cache files (categories, filters, etc
if ($scope == 'all') {
$files = glob(DIR_CACHE . '*.*');
foreach ($files as $file) {
if (is_file($file)) unlink($file);
}
}

Take note from the above code suggestion that is only clears the theme part but not the sass part of the cache as compared to the admin dashboard.

True but I have only seen SASS working to create bootstrap css files in admin, not seen any sass cache files on the catalog side being created.
Then again I am a novice on SASS.
In any event, the dashboard cache control panel does not have a button to clear the filters, catalog, language, currency, etc. cache files.

Hopefully not. Otherwise, it would be unthinkable on the mount of extensions unrelated to those events that would be affected.In any event, the dashboard cache control panel does not have a button to clear the filters, catalog, language, currency, etc. cache files.
