WP Night Mode conflict (I think)

  • So I’m using WP Night Mode an otherwise fairly slick little plug-in that lets users switch the site to a dark theme, but many users report that it turns on and off unexpectedly. I suspect this is because the pages are getting cached in either mode at random, which in retrospect is kind of an obvious problem.

    So… any idea how I could fix this? Excluding Night Mode users from caching would be acceptable, if I could figure out how to do that. It sets a cookie, is there any relatively easy way to test for that?

    Or any other solution/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    For testing, you could try to create simple PHP file and upload it into wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/plugins (I think that you need to uncheck option Don’t cache pages for known users). This file will be removed in update process, but I hope that we will fix some issues related to cookie and caching in next releases.

    <?php

add_cacheaction( 'wp_cache_get_cookies_values', 'my_wp_night_mode_wpsc_cookies' );

function my_wp_night_mode_wpsc_cookies( $string ) {
    global $super_cache_enabled;

    if ( ! empty( $_COOKIE['wpNightMode'] ) && $_COOKIE['wpNightMode'] === 'true' ) {
        $string             .= 'wp-night-mode-on' . ',';
        $super_cache_enabled = false; // Create only wp-cache file.
    }

    return $string;
}

    One of good thing is ignoring ‘false’ value of cookie which isn’t possible with other solutions. If it works as should then I could try to help you to write better WPSC plugin.
