thumbnail cache location
thumbnail cache location
I have set the cache path in the config to a particular folder, but this folder remains empty.
How can I find where the cache is located?
I'm using XYplorer 23.10

Re: thumbnail cache location
If you are currently showing cached thumbnails, then this script (paste into Address Bar and press ENTER) will show you the full path to the cache file:
Code: Select all
echo get("thumbs_cache");

Sorry for the long delay: many problems to solve.
I pasted in the code, but all I got was a window that opened saying "echo"

Re: thumbnail cache location
I've seen a lot in this forum, so let me ask: You did see the condition "If you are currently showing cached thumbnails..."?

How do I know whether they are cached? That's what I'm trying to find out. I thought I would start by looking for the cache.

Tick this: Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Cache thumbnails on disk

Re: thumbnail cache location
Yes, I have this ticked.
And I have the folder for the cache defined. But it is empty.

Re: thumbnail cache location
Presumably there is a default path and filename for the cache? If so, does anyone know what it is?
Re: thumbnail cache location
By default it's in
<xydata>\Thumbnails\

Re: thumbnail cache location
As I have explained, I set the cache path, but there is nothing there.
My problem is that what is in the settings doesn't seem to correspond to what I can see in the configured thumbnail folder.
I'm not sure what " <xythumbs> " means.
