Double Shared maxage for Strong caching options for Ruleset: File and image resources

[mauritsvanrees]

What I did:

• Go to the caching control panel.
• On the Import Settings tab import the 'With caching proxy' settings.
• Go to the 'Detailed settings' tab.
• Locate the 'File and image resources'
• Click ' View/edit/clear per-ruleset parameters '

What I expect to happen:

• I expect a field for maximum age and a field for Shared maximum age.

What actually happened:

• I see two fields for Shared maximum age. At least, the title and description for the two fields are the same. See screen shot. When I check the html, the first one is for maxage and the second one for s-maxage.

What version of Plone/ Addons I am using:

This is in Plone 4.3, 5.0, 5.1 with plone.app.caching.

Analysis

In the configuration registry, the plone.app.caching.strongCaching.plone.resource.maxage has the wrong title and description:

The error is in these lines in the with-caching-proxy profile. This has been in there since six years, version 1.0b2.

The code works fine, it just shows a wrong title and description, which is confusing.

Solution

• Fix the profile. We just need to remove one character. :-)
• See if we can fix existing installs. plone.app.caching.strongCaching.plone.resource.maxage is not always there, so we cannot just add a registry.xml in plone.app.upgrade. But should be doable.

I will have a go at this.

In the changelog of Plone 4.3.15 says, that this ticket has been fixed. But apparently it's not the case when looking at the status of this ticket. Any reasons why it is that?

Forgot to close it I guess.
Let me check to be sure.
Core problem fixed in plone.app.caching 1.1.12 (Plone 4.3.15 and higher) 1.2.17 (Plone 5.0.8 and higher, Plone 5.1).
Upgrade step for fixing existing installations done in plone.app.upgrade 1.4.2 (Plone 4.3.15 and higher) and 2.0.3 (Plone 5.0.8 and higher, Plone 5.1).
So yes, it is fixed in Plone 4.3.15.
I will close the issue now.
