Not a Bug


This is marked as not a bug with concrete5 core.

on_start() defined in a package does not fire when Full Page Cache is on

Permalink 16 14 Browser Info Environment
I wonder if this is a bug or feature but it seems that if I declare on_start() function inside a package controller, it won't get fired if Full Page Caching is on. The function is declared as following:

public function on_start() {
            $l = new Log('testing', true);
            $l->write(date('U'));
            $l->close();
    }


On a "cache-clean" page load the event is fired a row is added to Logs table, but after page has been full-page cached no logging occurs. On pages that contains non-cacheable blocks every page load creates a log entry.
Status: Not a Bug

Still Valid:

This bug is valid a newer version of concrete5. View Current Bug

That is a feature. We used to have full page caching fire later in the process but the flexibility is far outweighed by the speed benefits of having it fire early.

Thanks for your reply. I wonder if this correct place to continue discussion, but I'd like to ask what would be the best place in a package to add some code that should be executed on every page load, be the page cached or not? Would it require overriding/extending some core model(s)? Theme header/element is not possible in my case.

I'm running a modified version of Mnkras' page redirect attribute, and it's completely not firing when the user is logged out, as it uses the on_start() event as well. Is there a suggested event/method that will still fire even though caching is enabled?

That sounds more like a bug than a feature to me. :)
