turn off caching for snippets

Hi Guys,
How do u turn off caching for snippets. I am using snippets to call php files and the cache is always showing the old version of the file on update. I end up having to clear the System cache each time.
Is there another way to call templates apart from php embeds in snippets? I want to be able to work on files directly in Dreamweaver instead of editing in the control panel.
Thanks

Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) , php 5, mysql 5, modx rev 2.0.8

[[!snippet]] instead of [[snippet]]

Sry, I don’t know what you mean.

Php includes are fine - try using this one.

Just make sure you are calling your include snippet uncached - [[!include? .... ]] - so it will fetch your fresh code on every load.

Thanks Guys

This is working fine for me and no caching issues



I hope it helps somebody else!

Cheers

Once your snippet code is final, you might want to remove the uncached tag and let it be cached to speed up page views.

Cool thanks!

Hi it does not really work for me

chunk -

[[!get_homepage? &file=`/customSnippets/homepage.php`]]


get_homepage snippet

<?php
return include $modx->getOption('base_path').$file;

it returns same content when I use different browse. (I did some browser check in /customSnippets/homepage.php file)
any idea?

thanks

Could the data used by the file to create its output be coming from the cache?
