| I seem to have an issue with banner ads (with multiple ads) rotating. If I disable PageBlaster, all is well. With PageBlaster enabled the ads do not rotate on refresh, [browser] cache clearing, close browser.
I should also add that I'm currently using Scott's (Ventrian) DotNetNuke.HttpModules.UrlRewrite.dll for HumanFriendly URLs (home.aspx, etc.)
Help.... | | | |

| PageBlaster caches the whole page, so any ad rotaion that is not done with a seperate call to the server which can then be excluded will be cached also.
I'll be adding a feature to do Content Rotation using Ajax to the next version of PageBlaster. | | | |

| Thanks John,
So what you're saying is there is no way in the current release to configure PageBlaster to ignore (exclude) the DNN Banners module. That's a shame, do you happen to know if this is possible through the Core compression module?

| Hi Chris,
Keep in mind that Compression and Caching are two different things. The DNN core compression module does not cache the whole page so it will not keep the banner from rotating since it will call the code to build a new page every time.
What is needed for this kind of situation is a way to deliver a cached page, but include dynamic content inside it by using Javascript/Ajax or an Iframe.
If you want, you can make PageBlaster work like the core compression module by excluding that page from Caching. | | | |
