CSS design file cache setting - no more "Use Static Cache File"?

Squiz Matrix Support

We recently upgrade Matrix from 3.28.8 to 4.10.4.

In 3.28.8 we setup CSS design files and enabled the static cache as below.

However in 4.10.4 this setting is no longer respected.

Was there a change of the way CSS design file behaves? Anyone here notice the change? 1.jpg (10.5 KB)

Are you using linked css design areas? If the css file is live/public and has static cache turned on you should be seeing it served out on __data paths, but only if you use linked css.

Hi Anthony,

Thanks for the reply.

Yes we are using linked CSS design areas and the permission settings are all correct.

The CSS design files were working as expected in 3.28.8 until we had Squiz upgrade Matrix to 4.10.4.

Also I found the reference about this function in http://manuals.matrix.squizsuite.net/designs/chapters/css-design-file is gone. I suspect the function has been retired silently?

I'll pass this onto our documentation people. The functionality is still there, I have it working on the latest stable Matrix, in fact we use it quite heavily so the browser caches the CSS properly and Matrix isn't used to process CSS for each page load (passed off to apache to serve).

Many thanks Anthony for checking this for me.
