Resume download of PART extension file in Firefox

In some cases, when a large file had been downloaded through Mozilla Firefox, downloading of file gets interrupted for some reason. The Firefox would tag the download as “failed” and you are left with nothing but a .PART file. You right click it, it would ask you to ‘retry’ which would restart the download from the beginning. In my case i had been downloading a 100MB zip file and it failed once 97MB of it was downloaded. Click to continue »

Clear template cache in x-cart

Have you been making changing into a smarty template file (within x-cart and perhaps independently as well) for long and the changes would not come up at all? Who could tell better how frustrating this can be!

The simplest and most effective way to clear template cache in x-cart is to call cleanup.php file which is placed at the root directory of x-cart installation. So if your installation is inside public_html directory (have nothing to do with directory actually) and your website address is http://www.devarticles.in just call http://www.devarticles.in/cleanup.php and all your template cache will be cleared with a message something like this:

The compiled templates cache (“templates_c” directory) has been cleaned up.

(Thanks to Steve for his post)
