The Advanced Settings control technical aspects of Creative Elements, including element caching, generated CSS, asset loading priority, and the frontend libraries loaded by the module.
Creative Elements - Advanced Settings
Warning: Do not change these options unless necessary. Incorrect settings may affect the appearance or functionality of your site.
- Element Cache
- Set how long rendered Creative Elements content is stored in the cache. When enabled, cached content can be served instead of rendering the elements again on every request, improving frontend performance. Available durations are 1 hour, 6 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, and 1 year. The default is 1 day. Select Disable to turn Element Cache off.
- CSS Print Method
- Choose how generated Creative Elements stylesheets are loaded. External File loads generated styles as separate CSS files and is the recommended option for better performance. Internal Embedding includes the generated styles directly in the page.
- CSS & JS Priority
- Set the loading priority of CSS and JavaScript assets registered by Creative Elements. The default value is 50. Lower values give the assets a higher priority. Change this setting only when you need to adjust the loading order in relation to other styles or scripts.
- Exclude Categories from Module widget
- Select PrestaShop module categories that should be excluded from the Module widget. Modules belonging to the selected categories will not be available for selection in the widget.
- Load Animate.css Library
- Enable or disable loading the Animate.css library used to provide ready-to-use animations.
- Load FontAwesome Library
- Enable or disable loading the Font Awesome icon library used by Creative Elements.
- Load Font Awesome 4 Support
- Enable backward compatibility for previously selected Font Awesome 4 icons when using the newer Font Awesome 6 library.
- Load jQuery Sticky Plugin
- Enable or disable loading the jQuery Sticky plugin used to fix supported elements to the top of the page while scrolling.
- Load Swiper Library
- Enable or disable loading the Swiper library used for touch-enabled sliders and carousels.
Note: The Remove Hidden Elements feature is available only when Element Cache is disabled.
