if a layout is dynamic, every page using that layout is also dynamic. that is probably what's happening here

I do have a layout where i use an authentication provider, it is probably dynamic. Can i force routes withing to be static ?

you can manually cache queries in the page with unstable_cache() or fetch(), then the page itself will still be dynamic but the slow part of the page is already cached so the page is effectively static

there arent any queries on those routes, they are just part of a dynamic layout. Is it possible to use something like force static on each of those routes ?

no you can't. if there aren't any queries on those routes, there is nothing you need to do because the route is already as fast as it can possibly get already

export const dynamic = "force-static";

i tried to use this on top and the next build output showed that this page became static instead of dynamic. Any side effects here ?

the auth part in your layout most likely broke

why ?

i did this on a route and not on the main layout

yes but then the layout will also inherit this force-static, if i recall correctly. well there is only one way to know... test it out, if it works it works

the only thing at risk of breaking is the dynamic part of the layout, if it still works then that's great news

okay. i will test it out, even though a parent getting affected by a child would be a bit weird, should be the other way around

to my knowledge it is not possible to have a static page in a dynamic layout. the layout can be static in some pages and dynamic in others, but you cannot have part of the resulting html dynamic and part of it static, on a single route. assuming no PPR.

hmm, i know its not possible within the same route, not layout

ill try anyway

thank you
