Global content replacement function of AnQiCMS
AnQiCMS provides a very practical feature, namely 'Full Site Content Replacement'.This feature allows users to replace keywords or links on the entire site with one click, greatly enhancing the efficiency of content operation, especially when quick response to content strategy adjustments or large-scale URL restructuring is required.When we execute this operation through the background interface, AnQiCMS will handle and update the relevant content stored in the database.This means that the replacement operation is completed immediately at the database level.
The role of static cache mechanism
However, AnQiCMS, as a high-performance enterprise-level content management system, adopts static caching technology to provide faster access speed and better user experience.The page content of the website is generated as a static file and stored by the system when the user first visits it, or under specific conditions.The system will directly provide these pre-generated static files when subsequent users visit these pages, without the need to query and render from the database again. This significantly reduces server load and speeds up page loading.
Content replacement and联动 with static cache
It is due to the existence of static caching that when we update the content in the database through the "Full Site Content Replacement" feature in the background, front-end users cannot see these changes immediately.The reason is that, even though the database content has been updated, the website is still providing visitors with old, unreplaceable static cached pages.In this case, the user still sees the old content before the replacement.
To make the content updated through the "Filter Replacement" or "Full Site Content Replacement" feature take effect immediately on the front end, the key isManually update (clear) static cache.
Practical Suggestions
Therefore, after performing any operation involving content modification with AnQiCMS, especially large-scale content replacement, it is strongly recommended to immediately execute the 'update cache' operation to ensure that users can see the latest website content.Although static caching itself will have a certain expiration time and will be automatically regenerated after expiration, manual cache update is an indispensable step for changes that need to take effect immediately.
It should be noted that this mainly discusses the interaction between the "full-site content replacement" feature provided by AnQiCMS as a background management function and static caching. If certain content filters are used in template files (such as|replaceThis template tag), its immediacy depends on whether the template file itself is cached.In most cases, you also need to update the cache after modifying the template file to see the effect.But in the context of AnQiCMS, when discussing the "content after filter replacement", it usually refers to global content management operations.
By understanding the mechanism of AnQiCMS, we can more efficiently manage and update website content, ensuring that the website always displays the latest and most accurate information.
Common Questions (FAQ)
Q1：If I only modify the title or part of the content of a single page, do I also need to clear the entire site cache to take effect immediately?
A1: Yes, to ensure that the changes take effect immediately on the front end, even for the content modification of a single page, it is recommended to manually clear the AnQiCMS site-wide cache after the modification.Because static caches are usually generated for the entire page or even the entire site, the corresponding static page may still be an old version even if only a small part of the database content is updated.Clearing the cache can force the system to regenerate static pages containing the latest content in English.
Q2：Static caching has what benefits for a website? Can I disable it if I don't want to use it?
A2: Static caching offers significant benefits to websites, including a substantial improvement in page loading speed, reduced server resource consumption (especially under high concurrency access), and indirect optimization of SEO performance.AnQiCMS as a high-performance CMS, static caching is one of its core performance optimization mechanisms. It is usually not recommended or cannot be completely disabled, as it is deeply integrated into the system architecture to ensure efficiency.If completely disabled, the website performance may be severely affected.
Q3: Besides manually updating the cache, does AnQiCMS automatically update the cache? For example, does the cache page have an expiration time?
A3：AnQiCMS的静态缓存通常具有一定的过期机制。This means that even if you do not manually update, the cache file will automatically expire and regenerate after reaching its preset lifetime.But this cycle may be several minutes, several hours, or even longer, depending on the system configuration.Therefore, for website content updates that need to take effect immediately, manually clicking the "Update Cache" button is still the most effective way to ensure timeliness.
