Hmm that's odd - just took a look at the XML file and it contains the correct plugin to cache the templates. If it's a problem for you - you can manually cache the template but making a plugin:

Title: Menu Control - Cache Templates
Hook Location: cache_templates
PHP: $menucontrol[] = 'menucontrol';

Hope this helps,

Marky

I am interested in this but...
I would only have use for it if it could be set for certain usergroups
i.e. show only for VIP's

Is this possible?

I have clicked install anyway with the hope that you can update to this

I'll be working on version 2.0 anytime I can - but currently have a lot of school work on at the moment, so the next version may be a little late, but it'll be here

Hmm that's wierd... look in your products and if there is a product with no name - delete it - don't forget to export it first just incase for a backup
