The caching settings in DW are mostly related to dynamic content / pages.

You can control browser caching of static content by adding settings manually to web.config or use IIS manager:

http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/staticcontent/clientcache

The settings are stored in the web.config file in the Application root folder of the Dynamicweb installation.

Here is an example (look for staticContent), which shows some "best practices" for ensuring correct caching of static resources (and other useful stuff):

Hey,

has anything changed in this regard.

In particular, I would like to change the cache experiation for css and js files to meet the requirements from Google Pagespeed Insights.

I've added a key to my GlobalSettings that controls the cache period for images produced by the image handler. It would be amazing to have the same option for other types of content. We don't have access to web.config on many of our clients' solutions.

Is there news in this regrad? Would be nice to be able to set this up in settings/management center

Hi Hans

There will be a significant update on this area in 9.3 making caching much much better (and always on) for pages, paragraphs and items on a page. So until then - you cannot do much.

Hi Nicolai,

that sounds really great! Looking forward to 9.3.

I hope caching of js and css resources will be considered as well, since that matters a lot in regards to Google Pagespeed.
