Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Menu Caching
You don't have to do anything at all. As soon as you install and activate the plugin, menu caching starts working immediately. You can visit the plugin's settings under Tools > Menu Caching to disable menu caching for a specific menu, or clear manually the cache.
Yes, it does. Pages in some circumstances are not sarved from cache, or a cached version is not available. In these scenarios menu caching greatly reduces page load time. For more info see the respective section in the description.
Yes, there is a button on the plugin's settings under Tools > Menu Caching. You probably don't need to, though. The cache auto-refreshes frequently, and also gets flushed after you edit a menu.
Menu items like a logout link, contain a nonce for security reasons. Nonces are unique for each logged-in user session. This plugin detects automatically if a menu contains links with nonces and cache this specific menu separately for each user session. If you still have any problem with caching of a menu, or you just don't want to cache it for any reason, you can disable caching for this specific menu from the plugin's settings.
The cached menus are saved in the database in the 'wp_options' table as transients with a lifetime of 10 hours.
Cache gets automatically refreshed as a preventive measure, so that it never gets stale. Also, the 10 hours period prevents nonces from expiring, in case some of your menus contain some of them.
add_filter( 'dc_wp_menu_caching_lifetime', function( $original_value ) { return $time_in_seconds; } );
Some themes make weird things to menus. Or maybe you use a plugin that add extra functionality to menus, like mega menus etc. This plugin works fine with most of the themes and plugins out there, but I can't promise compatibility with anything out there. If you notice anything weird in a menu after enabling this plugin, please head to this plugin's settings and disable caching for this specific menu.
No, it's not because menus in block themes work in an entirely different way. It's not going to break anything though, it won't do anything at all, like wearing sunglasses at night.
