Locator Block Settings

Updated

Overview

These settings apply to the Location Search block. The cache settings trade freshness for speed: longer times make searches faster, shorter times show location edits sooner.

Where to find these settings

  1. In the WordPress admin, go to Appearance → Customize
  2. Open Dirigible Locations
  3. Select the Locator Block sub-panel

Settings

  • Filter Label — label for the type filter on Location Search (default Type)
  • Locator Query Cache — hours to remember search results (0–168, default 12)
  • Locator HTML Cache — hours to keep the finished results before rebuilding them (0–168, default 18)

Tips

  • Keep the two cache times different so they don't refresh at the same moment.
  • Lower both while you're editing lots of locations, then raise them again.
