Joomla 1.5.22

We have figured out that if we make a url non-sef, it will not cache. Is this the only way to get a url to stay out of cache?

We need this ability because some of our urls are running a php script (using Jumi) and report a session variable outside of joomla to the page. These are not wrappers it is embedded into a joomla page.

Thank you.

Hello,
not sure what cache level you have in mind?

we want DO NOT CACHE at all. is this possible to do on some pages?
Also is it possible to tell JoomSef not to touch or process some urls? This is an issue because something it does is making modules show up where they shouldn't, and it is also caching pages even when they are locked or non-sef. What I said in my first post was wrong, even wen I make them non-sef, they still cache.
We have pages that require Do not Cache.

ok, we have solved most of the issue, by going into items and changing the menu associated with the itemid. I'm not sure why this is necessary, it seems that we are doing this quite often on various areas of the site. Also we have made many urls "non-sef" so that they do not process in the system.

We still have issues with cache. Sometimes when we delete cache, or purge cache from ArtioSEF, then go to tools and do joomla cache and purge expired, things still do not refresh properly. I am thinking now to completely turn off artioSEF cache and just use joomla cache.

Hello,
JoomSEF cache is used only to decrease number of queries to DB. It only stores the original and SEF format of the URLs.
You can of course turn it off, but I cannot see why just clearing it after some change should not be enough.

Btw. when clearing cache in Joomla (all caches), JoomSEF cache will also be cleared.
