TYPO3 Core

Can you please add your TypoScript configuration here and describe what does not work in detail? Thanks in advance!

No Typoscript configuration needed from reporter, because I already aknowledge this bug.

Has a long tail to fix first, not doable during bug auction.

pointers: track MENUDATA from cache_hash table, ident column. gets stored but not cleared. clearing is dificult because we can't recreate the identifying hash in the backend, when hiding a page.

possible solution: add a column pid to cache_hash, clear all parents' and siblings' MENUDATA when hiding a page

alternative solution: extract MENUDATA caching into a separate cache like treelist cache and also handle clearing like tree list in a hook and for the correct events

Are there any news here?

Hey guys, we're encountering the very same problem for ages now. Isn't there any solution to this yet? This slows down our whole system and we're forced to implement cronjobs to clear the cache table on a regular basis. It would be great if you could raise the priority on this.

Hi,

Ok, I had to inform you about the status.

After the T3BOARD10 I did a lot of investigation regarding this topic and posted the outcome of this investigation to the other core team members. Currently there is no simple solution. The outcome of this investigation was we need to rewrite the whole tslib_menu. As this is a major task, I asked to the other core team members to discuss this during the meeting we have in front of the T3DD10 and see if we can find a good solution. We need to have the views of multiple people, simply because this is pretty complicated stuff to solve.

We already agreed this task was too late and too complicated to get into 4.4.
I'll post my outcome on the dev mailinglist as well, so you know what exactly is going on.

Posted the outcome of my investigation to the dev mailing list
