Homefeatured Cache

[Geronimo2012]

Hello,

 

I'm having a problem with HomeFeatured module 1.8.0 which caches queried products.

 

I have the randomize feature enabled but the query result is cached and not refreshed anymore.

To work around this I tried to solve this by overriding hookDisplayHome and _cacheProducts methods.

I did not succeed however.

 

I can manage to avoid caching but what I would like to do is to refresh the cache after for example 30 minutes.

 

Any ideas?

 

Tried something with storing time in a static variable

and when current time > stored time + configurable offset clearing the cache with $this_>clearCache(...).

But that also resulted in loosing the static variable and triggering the refresh before the timer expires.
