| Description: | DPL Pages Load Slowly |
| Extension / Version: | DPL / ? |
| Type / Status: | Change Request / open |
Problem
Would like a way to Cache Pages. I was thinking a Bot that runs the DPL query and would write the static result to the Actual Article. Then you could schedule the bot to refresh the Pages as often as necessary.
I am adding this as a Feature request. I am not smart enough to write the bot.
