Hi chapman,
These look like Amazon ‘iframe’ images which unfortunately can not be cached, as the content of the iframe is sourced directly from Amazon.
I don’t know of any caching plugin that will support caching of iframes.
You would need to create a template that emulated the content of the iframe, then the plugin could cache the product data locally.
Hope that helps,
Paul
Okay. First I should point out I’m not an experienced web programmer. This stuff has more punctuation than text… it is gibberish to me. Ideally, I just want a plug and play solution with a product thumbnail, a localised price and localised buy button. The default templates used to give us that but now all have flaws:
I deleted all my templates so they refreshed from the default template list.
* iframe image template as shown has unreliable image retrieval,
* image template retrieves nothing, not even in preview.
* multinational point blank refuses to show US price & flag.
In short, we’re screwed. 200+ pages of messed up links.
Happy to set you up an admin login.

Hi,
Sorry to here you’re having problems, it sounds like your AWS credentials are not working correctly. Amazon have changed the AWS registration process and rules, making it extremely difficult to follow – one of the reasons I am not developing the plugin anymore.
If you have got a valid set of credentials then try testing them using the Amazon AWS scratchpad: http://webservices.amazon.com/scratchpad/index.html
Do an itemlookup entering your AWS keys and the ASIN and see if it finds the product.
Cheers,
Paul
The template “iframe image2” is working much better… so my AWS stuff seems to be fine. I’ll change the flaky pages and see if it solves the problems.
From my PoV your plugin is perfect… it doesn’t need development, just support to make sure AZON don’t break it 🙂 All other similar plugins have “issues”… like using an external service.
