Using wp_cache_key to set the cache key dynamically

  • We need to be able to set the cache key dynamically, using different criteria depending on the user. The developer documentation is not very clear, therefore I was wondering if there is any example that shows how to achieve that result. From my understanding, the following should be sufficient:

    function my_custom_cachekey($key) {
  if(custom_criteria_satisfied()) {
    $key .= 'some_custom_string';
  }
  return $key;
}
add_cacheaction('wp_cache_key', 'my_custom_cachekey');

    Is there anything else that we should set, or would that do the trick?

  • If you need to save and serve different versions of the same page, I got this using a different approach.
    Using the wp_cache_key filter was not saving different versions of the same page on my setup (I’m using PHP mode cache).

    I did it using the supercache_filename_str filter in this way:

    function my_supercache_filename_filter($extra_str) {
	if(custom_criteria_satisfied()) {
		$extra_str .= '__some_custom_string';
	}
	return $extra_str;
}
add_cacheaction('supercache_filename_str', 'my_supercache_filename_filter');

if ( function_exists( "apply_filters" ) ) {
	add_filter('supercache_filename_str', 'my_supercache_filename_filter');
}

    I got this from here: https://github.com/Automattic/wp-super-cache/blob/3fce4ed10dd9a991197e917d2e9568c5516dd73a/wp-cache-phase1.php#L648

    Hope it helps.
