# Custom Caching Code Compatibility with WP Super Cache

 * I’m currently developing the [Easy Form Builder plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-form-builder/)
   and need some advice on potential conflicts with WP Super Cache.
 * Here’s the function I’m using for internal caching:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       public function get_efbFunction($state) {    if (isset($this->efbFunction)) return $this->efbFunction;    $efbFunctionInstance;    if (false === ($efbFunctionInstance = wp_cache_get('efbFunctionInstance', 'emsfb'))) {        if (!class_exists('Emsfb\efbFunction')) {            require_once(EMSFB_PLUGIN_DIRECTORY . 'includes/functions.php');        }        $efbFunctionInstance = new \Emsfb\efbFunction();        wp_cache_set('efbFunctionInstance', $efbFunctionInstance, 'emsfb', 3600); // 1 hour cache    }    $this->efbFunction = $efbFunctionInstance;    if ($state == 1) return $this->efbFunction;}
       ```
   
 * My concern is whether using `wp_cache_get` and `wp_cache_set` for internal caching
   might cause any conflicts with WP Super Cache. Has anyone had similar experiences
   or know of best practices to ensure they work together smoothly?
 * Any guidance or insights would be greatly appreciated.
 * Thank you for your help!

 * If the page with your form is cached by WP Super Cache then the internal caching
   you’re doing won’t matter as the PHP code on that line won’t run when a cached
   page is displayed.
 * This does have a side effect if you’re using a secret key to stop spam that expires,
   for example, as the secret key will be recorded by the page when it is cached.
