Try enabling the late init option on the settings page.
FAQ suggestion:
The FAQ says “To execute WordPress functions you must define $wp_super_cache_late_init in your config file.“
Which config file? Where? How? Why? This is pretty confusing and misleading.
Suggestion: The FAQ should instead say you have to enable it on the Advanced page. I had to find this forum post to learn this, because I didn’t remember there was an option like that on the Advanced page….
Best wishes,

Thanks. When that FAQ was written the advanced settings page option didn’t exist. I’ll update it.
Hi Donncha,
I thought I got working, but not for 100%
My theme file includes a file and a function from that file is called later:
<!--mclude wp-content/box-cache/switch-content-home.php-->
<?php include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-content/box-cache/switch-content-home.php' ); ?>
<!--/mclude-->
<!--mfunc showHTML()-->
<?php showHTML() ?>
<!--/mfunc-->
After the cache file is created I see exact the same code in that file (except for the file path, where the absolute path variable shows the value) Inside the included file I get different ads for a specific country.
I get the content from the showHTML() function at the moment that the page is generated, but the content is gone after the second page view.
Does this sound familiar? I tried the function a second time in a simple way using this function:
function showHTML() {
$somevar = 1;
echo ($somevar == 1) ? 'this is one' : 'this is not';
}
But in that case I get the first message only once. If I access the cache file from the browser directly, it’s working. Seems like that the PHP code isn’t executed when the cache file is called by WordPress.
Try putting a space before the “–>” string. Does that help?
Have you tried the “dynamic-cached-content” tag too?
Hi Donncha,
I tried them both, no success 🙁
The strange thing is that my cache file looks 100% good, it’s just the PHP code isn’t executed inside the PHP (cache) file.
Do you have a working example?
Have you made sure that PHP executes when you view a cached page? Use the debug log, make sure the supercache rewrite rules aren’t in your .htaccess file.
Hi Donncha,
I removed the rules by myself and if I access the cache file directly everything is fine. If check the cache time stamp from the public url, I have the same cache file. It’s only the PHP part which isn’t executed. If you like I can create an example (I hoped you have an working example)
I don’t have a working example and since my site uses Varnish mfunc won’t work. You might need to debug the mfunc code in wp-cache-phase2.php with error_log to figure out what’s going wrong.
Hi Donncha,
I got it working and I think the problem was inside the (included) script.
After the cached page was generated all the wordpress settings were missing (I guess). That’s the only explanation I have because suddenly it worked. Thanks for the help.
