Cache using Sitecore Rocks

While development with sitecore, sometime content is not getting updated because of cache issue. To overcome this issue what usually we do:

1. <instance_name>/sitecore/admin/cache.aspx 

2. Recycle AppPool from IIS.

3. Browse page on private browser mode.

there is one more option but it is more flexible and much fast, yes it's with sitecore rocks.


Let's do practical on this:

First need to go instance, right click and select Manage option

after this will see Caches Section with cached listing items with all the properties.

let's select one of an item from cached listed items

After selecting one of an item will have two options:

either clear all cache means it will clear all the cached item which all are listed

or cache means it will clear cache of this item as well as child of this item also.

let's explore one of an item from the list, and will see all the child items

now from this list we will have option to remove from cache, instead of clear.

 Now suppose you are working on one of rendering and after the development just remove that item from cached list that's it.
you will see the new changes.


Hope will help this.

working with Temp file using Sitecore rocks

It's always good to keep clean and minimized as much as possible. Like temp files on the sitecore instance reserve memory which is unnecessary and to remove/clear all the temp files at one place using sitecore rocks is very easy.

So let's start first go to instance and right click, select Manage option 

now jump to Temp Files section, here you will see all the temp files are listed will reserved space and path

you don't need to go particular file location, just right click on the file and perform your option as below.

Really by this i'm enjoying while development.

Thanks Sitecore Rocks to save our valuable time!!!
