I'm developing a content sharing site. (Closest analogy is something like docstoc.com.) I find that page caching isn't practical since many things will change depending on whether the user is logged in or not. Example: the banner on top will have the user's name, a sign off link, the side bars will have his profile and recent activities, etc, which is unique for each user.
Even fragment caching is difficult. For example, in a listing of documents, each item has a star rating. If the user has voted on that item or the item belongs to him, I hide the vote link. So I can't exactly cache the list of most recent documents. If the user isn't logged in, then I can do a lot more with caching. I guess I want to do conditional caching. What are some general strategies for handling caching in a situation like this? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
