Informations about the package wp-cache-remember
WP Cache Remember
WP Cache Remember is a simple WordPress include to introduce convenient new caching functions.
Well-built WordPress plugins know when to take advantage of the object cache and/or transients, but they often end up with code that looks like this:
That pattern works well, but there's a lot of repeated code. This package draws inspiration from Laravel's Cache::remember()
method; using wp_cache_remember()
, the same code from above becomes:
Installation
The best way to install this package is via Composer:
The package ships with the composer/installers
package, enabling you to control where you'd like the package to be installed. For example, if you're using WP Cache Remember in a WordPress plugin, you might store the file in an includes/
directory. To accomplish this, add the following to your plugin's composer.json
file:
Then, from within your plugin, simply include or require the file:
Using as a plugin
If you'd prefer, the package also includes the necessary file headers to be used as a WordPress plugin.
After downloading or cloning the package, move wp-cache-remember.php
into either your wp-content/mu-plugins/
(preferred) or wp-content/plugins/
directory. If you chose the regular plugins directory, you'll need to activate the plugin manually via the Plugins › Installed Plugins page within WP Admin.
Bundling within a plugin or theme
WP Cache Remember has been built in a way that it can be easily bundled within a WordPress plugin or theme, even commercially.
Each function declaration is wrapped in appropriate function_exists()
checks, ensuring that multiple copies of the library can co-exist in the same WordPress environment.
Usage
WP Cache Remember provides the following functions for WordPress:
wp_cache_remember()
wp_cache_forget()
remember_transient()
forget_transient()
remember_site_transient()
forget_site_transient()
Each function checks the response of the callback for a WP_Error
object, ensuring you're not caching temporary errors for long periods of time. PHP Exceptions will also not be cached.
wp_cache_remember()
Retrieve a value from the object cache. If it doesn't exist, run the $callback
to generate and cache the value.
Parameters
- (string) $key
- The cache key.
- (callable) $callback
- The callback used to generate and cache the value.
- (string) $group
- Optional. The cache group. Default is empty.
- (int) $expire
- Optional. The number of seconds before the cache entry should expire. Default is 0 (as long as possible).
Example
wp_cache_forget()
Retrieve and subsequently delete a value from the object cache.
Parameters
- (string) $key
- The cache key.
- (string) $group
- Optional. The cache group. Default is empty.
- (mixed) $default
- Optional. The default value to return if the given key doesn't exist in the object cache. Default is null.
Example
remember_transient()
Retrieve a value from transients. If it doesn't exist, run the $callback
to generate and cache the value.
Parameters
- (string) $key
- The cache key.
- (callable) $callback
- The callback used to generate and cache the value.
- (int) $expire
- Optional. The number of seconds before the cache entry should expire. Default is 0 (as long as possible).
Example
forget_transient()
Retrieve and subsequently delete a value from the transient cache.
Parameters
- (string) $key
- The cache key.
- (mixed) $default
- Optional. The default value to return if the given key doesn't exist in transients. Default is null.
remember_site_transient()
Retrieve a value from site transients. If it doesn't exist, run the $callback
to generate and cache the value.
This function shares arguments and behavior with remember_transient()
, but works network-wide when using WordPress Multisite.

Retrieve and subsequently delete a value from the site transient cache.
This function shares arguments and behavior with forget_transient()
, but works network-wide when using WordPress Multisite.
