Maybe 20 or 30 minutes... it's hard to tell for sure. Now, when logged in as a registered shopper, I no longer see the category in the MegaMenu but DO see the category in the navigation on the left. If I clear cache in Admin and view Public Store again, the category shows up in the MegaMenu. Only to disappear again randomly.
HI jdyer,
Please let me explain this in more details. The information shown in the left category navigation is cached by nopCommerce and is updated after 1 hour. The same applies about the information in the Mega Menu. This is done for improving the performance for nopCommerce. Unfortunately nopCommerce is missing a mechanism for knowing when the store owner makes any modifications on the ACL. That's why when the cache expires, it might seem random as it depends on when it has been cached, you see the updated information. You can always force resetting of the cache by clicking the "Reset cache" link on the top right in the Administration.
I hope this information is useful.
Best Regards,
