unfortunately in this situation I do not have $this->getChildHtml to assign false to it and then change my xml file for disabling cache I have this block in view.phtml:
<?php echo $this->getCmsBlockHtml() ?>
and the function is in view.php as follow:
public function getCmsBlockHtml()
{
if (!$this->getData('cms_block_html')) {
$html = $this->getLayout()->createBlock('cms/block')
->setBlockId($this->getCurrentCategory()->getLandingPage())
->toHtml();
$this->setData('cms_block_html', $html);
}
return $this->getData('cms_block_html');
}
any ideas on how to disable the cache here? my page is in category folder when displaying the products
Update:with help of Denis I understood that (for some pages) when I have something in constructor if the cache is enabled the constructor will not be called! and so I think that's the reason why setting the cache life time doesn't work there
