RSS-Bridge ships a few options the host may or may not activate. All options are currently defined in the index.php file. This means they'll be reset after upgrading RSS-Bridge!

Customizable cache timeout

Sometimes it is necessary to specify custom timeouts to update contents more frequently than the bridge maintainer intended. In these cases the client may specify a custom cache timeout to prevent loading contents from cache earlier (or later).

This option can be activated by setting the CUSTOM_CACHE_TIMEOUT to true. When enabled each bridge receives an additional parameter Cache timeout in seconds that can be set to any value between 1 and 86400 (24 hours). If the value is not within the limits the default settings apply (as specified by the bridge maintainer).

The cache timeout is send to RSS-Bridge using the _cache_timeout parameter. RSS-Bridge will return an error message if the parameter is received and the option is disabled.
