Problem with Cache plugin & REST API
-
Hello.
Thanks for creating a great plugin…
I’m having a problem with the Cache Plugin, have been trying for hours but still don’t understand what’s going on.
I switch from WP Rocket to Super Page Cache for Cloudflare Plugin.
I use rest_api to update the “View” Meta for the post every time a User visits. The code is as follows:
function updatePostViewApi(WP_REST_Request $request) { $postID = $request['id']; $postType = get_post_type($postID); if (is_null($postType)) { return new WP_REST_Response(null, 404); } setPostView($postID, $postType); return new WP_REST_Response(null, 200); } add_action('rest_api_init', function () { register_rest_route('catalog', '/post_view_data1/(?P<id>\d+)', array( 'methods' => 'GET', 'callback'=> 'updatePostViewApi', 'args' => array( 'id' => array( 'validate_callback' => function ($param, $request, $key) { return is_numeric($param); }, ), ), )); register_rest_route('catalog', '/post_view_data2/(?P<id>\d+)', array( 'methods' => 'GET', 'callback' => 'updatePostViewApi', 'args' => array( 'id' => array( 'validate_callback' => function ($param, $request, $key) { return is_numeric($param); }, ), ), )); register_rest_route('catalog', '/post_view_data3/(?P<id>\d+)', array( 'methods' => 'GET', 'callback' => 'updatePostViewApi', 'args' => array( 'id' => array( 'validate_callback' => function ($param, $request, $key) { return is_numeric($param); }, ), ), )); });Then I use extra code to generate Shortcode and use Plugin: Content No Cache to load Meta via Ajax it works perfectly with WP Rocket.
However with the Super Page Cache for Cloudflare Plugin. Code only updates 1 time if CACHE Status is not HIT.
Looks like Cloudflare is caching rest_api and preventing it from working once Cache Status is HIT. Or am I missing an installation?
Thanks if you have any advice on how to fix this problem.

Hi @isaumya
Sorry for the late reply, I saw the doctor for 2 days.
You are correct, the speed for the logged in person depends on the actual server. But WP Rocket has a function to create a cache for logged in users, I have used it in the past and it is quite good.
Currently, I know that Super Page Cache for Cloudflare only supports parallel use with WP Rocket by banning WP Rocket from using Cache to avoid conflicts. However I had a couple of ideas and tested it out.
After adding some customization. The good news is that Super Page Cache for Cloudflare can now be used with non-logged in users and HTML cache with logged in users via the WP Rocket plugin. This is just the initial result, more time is needed to monitor and evaluate the results.
As for the “wp-json” problem. Because I use Security Plugin change wp-json = api-json. So will get an error like the case I described. So is there a way to customize the output of the json?… Hope there is an easy way to do this.
Thank you for supporting!
