Changing the VastPark cache settings

Wishing you could control the cache settings for your VastPark applications? Never fear, there’s a way to do it.

Items are currently set to expire in 5hrs. To change this, go to Windows Start > Run

and type in %localappdata%\VastPark\Browser\config\

Hit enter, then edit settings.xml in notepad.

Change:

<ItemCacheExpiry>FiveHours</ItemCacheExpiry>

To:

<ItemCacheExpiry>Never</ItemCacheExpiry>

...to make it never expire. Perfect if you want to demonstrate things offline.

Or:

<ItemCacheExpiry>Always</ItemCacheExpiry>

...to make it always expire (useful if you want to ensure you get the latest content).

Hope that helps a few of you.
