   Hi Frederick,

   I was wondering if it is posible to use the add_action function even with caching the page.

   I have a Stats plugin wich calls:

   add_action('wp','es_pageviews');

   function es_pageviews(){
   	if(is_single() || is_page()){
   		global $post;
   		$pv = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_pageviews',true);
   		update_post_meta($post->ID, '_pageviews', $pv+1);
   	}
   }

   Very simple, as you can see.

   Using W3 Total Cache it gets cached, of course.

   Is there any chance I can force it to run the function? (even if the W3 Total Cache shows the static page as usual)

   I mean... update the post_meta "on background".

   Waiting for answer,

   Thanks.

   I've tried:

   <!-- mfunc -->es_pageviews(); the_pageview();<!-- /mfunc -->

   1) I've added mfunc exception in the Minification settings.

   2) I've turned off the Database Settings.

   It works.

   I activated the Debug Mode for the Database but I don't see the page views query :(

   Is there any way I can turn ON the Database Caching but adding an exception?

   Thank you.

   mfunc will not support any WordPress code because caching runs before WordPress can ever load.

   Interesting.

   Like I said it works for now but with the dabase cache off :)

   As you can see here http://php.quicoto.com/how-to-get-the-visitor-ip/

   The page is cached but the pageview counter (under the title) keeps counting.
