improve clarity of conditions in admin UI

Agreed, the way the conditions are presented in the UI is not clear.

Adding to some more documentation to the settings pane, though breaking all existing uses of this plugin.

Argh! This hasn't really helped at all, I'm still confused!

Hello,

Does this thread refer to the below settings?

Comments:
[ ]New or updated comments
Checks for new or updated comments

Node only:
[ ]Nodes updated/created/deleted
Allows the node segment to be refined to only include main operations create/update/delete. Be careful about combing with other node related segments.

I want the page to refresh when the node or comments in the node are updated.
How do I set this up?

Thank you so much!

Yes, I, too, believe the instructions on the UI could be better.

What is the purpose of the two AND'd checkboxes mentioned by YK85 in #8 above?

I'm guessing that if one checks the per-content types at the top of the Content-based cache UI form, then the cache will flush when a node is updated/created/deleted OR if a comment is posted/updated.

I'm guessing that one checks the Comment box ONLY if one wants the cache to flush when a node is updated/created/deleted AND a comment is added/deleted.

I'm also guessing that the "node-only" checkbox should be selected if one only wants the cache to flush on node create/update/delete ONLY with comments changes having no effect on cache flush.

Could someone who maintains or has experience with this module confirm my guesses? Much appreciated to anyone who can help with this, as I can see I am not the only one completely confused by the wording in the UI.

The VCC module is almost a necessity if using Views and Contexts extensively. It would greatly improve the value of this great module to have the instructions be a bit more clear.

Thanks!

Ran into this today. 7.x branch
I had both "New or updated comments" and "Node only" checked. View did not flush as I expected (when nod is created/updated/deleted or when comment is posted).
This still needs work to make it more clear what these checkboxes do.

Yes, the text explanations on this are also driving me crazy here too.

* The fieldset description text talks about AND'ed and then proceeds to provide examples using "or".
* It seems that the "Only Comments" and "Only Node create/edit/delete" options simply conflict with eachother.

I'd propose something like the following:

The conditions in this section will get AND'd together to further refine when to refresh the cache. For example, you can flush the cache when anything happens to a 'page' node (anything including add/delete or new comment) by selecting from the list of Node types. Alternatively, you could refine this to only refresh when the node is a 'page' AND a comment is created/updated.  Finally, you could limit the cache flush only when the node is a 'page' AND the node is created/edited/deleted ONLY.

Node types:
[ ] Page
[ ] Article

Limiting actions:
[ ] Only flush cache when a comment is created/updated/deleted on the node.
[ ] Only flush cache when the node is created/updated/deleted.
Note: Do NOT select both of these options.  Leaving both options unchecked means the cache will be flushed when either comments or nodes are created/edited/deleted.
