Which of these block cacheing properties are really needed? Trying to clean up possibly useless code in my block.
Permalink
When creating my blocks I have mostly copied over code from existing, free blocks and made changes from there.
Within a lot of the code I have seen are the following...
I would like to remove any of the above that are unnecessary but am not sure which to remove if any.
I guess I am wondering what the above do?
Is $btCacheBlockRecord a setting which if true, cache's the MySQL record used by the block which it retrieves from the database?
Is $btCacheBlockOutput the cacheing of the output such that C5 does not have to run the block logic or it's code anymore to display what the block normally displays?
What is $btCacheBlockOutputOnPost all about? IF my block does not use a form and/or does not use the POST method is that really necessary? Is this even about the POST method?
What is the difference between $btCacheBlockOuputOnPost and $btCacheBlockOutputForRegisteredUsers? Are both of these really necessary?
Any input anyone cares to give me would be appreciated. Better yet if anyone knows where these properties are explained exhaustively I would appreciate a link to said place.
Thanks.
