Add WP Super Cache support

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll look into it.

On a sidenote, doesn’t WP Super Cache have a way to exclude a cookie in their settings like some cache plugins do? Read more under I’m using a cache plugin, and it seems to be interfere with this plugin

Hi Johan,

yes you can exclude caching when specific cookie is used, but whats would be the point of caching plugin then?

This code that I shared caches separately, creates two copies of static cache, one for visitors with specific cookie set and other for visitors without the cookie. This way even when cookies_and_content_security_policy is set, the site will be cached. I personally think this is much better solution compared to exclusion.

With WP Super Cache being the most popular caching plugin with 2+ million installs, this I think is nice feature.

In the examples, it still caches, but it doesn’t cache the cookie.

I have tested a bit already and adding is_plugin_active() gives me Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function is_plugin_active(), so running it in a plugin seems too early for WordPress. You could run include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' ); but that would mess up custom paths that for example Bedrock uses. But I’ll do some more testing and see if I can get it to run properly.

It seems better to add it in the plugin like this:

if ( in_array( 'wp-super-cache/wp-cache.php', apply_filters( 'active_plugins', get_option( 'active_plugins' ) ) ) ) { 
    // Tell WP Super Cache to cache requests with the cookie “Cookies and Content Security Policy” separately from other visitors.
    function cacsp_add_wpsc_cookie_banner() {
        do_action( 'wpsc_add_cookie', 'cookies_and_content_security_policy' );
    }
    add_action( 'init', 'cacsp_add_wpsc_cookie_banner' );
}

If you get a preview version of 2.05, would you like to test it so that it works as expected @mikewpdev?

Hi, I was calling it after admin_init in my messy code, that is why I did not get the error, thanks for this.

Yes I will gladly test it.

Great! Send me a mail to [email protected] and I’ll send you a beta when I think I’m ready for release.

@mikewpdev, don’t forget to sen me that mail. ??

This will be in the next release (2.0.5)

Thanks for this!
