> Easily cache rendered menus using the Transients API.

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

The `wp_nav_menu()` function calls `_wp_menu_item_classes_by_context()`, which again, depending on the context, calls `wp_get_object_terms()`, which is **not** cached, multiple times. With lots of taxonomies, terms and menu items, this can lead to a fair amount of (totally redundant) database queries.

This plugin lets you cache rendered menus (assuming they don't have dynamic components) for re-use.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):

```
$ composer require inpsyde/menu-cache
```

### Requirements

[](#requirements)

This package requires PHP 5.4 or higher.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Once activated, the plugin caches **all** menus, by default for **five minutes**. The menus to be cached, as well as the expiration, can be customized by using the appropriate filter.

### Filters

[](#filters)

Need to customize anything? Just use the provided filters.

**Please note:** when you use the below class constants for the filters, make sure that the class is actually available. This can be as easy as *guarding* your customization with `if ( class_exists( 'Inpsyde\MenuCache\MenuCache' ) )`.

#### `Inpsyde\MenuCache\MenuCache::FILTER_EXPIRATION`

[](#inpsydemenucachemenucachefilter_expiration)

The `Inpsyde\MenuCache\MenuCache::FILTER_EXPIRATION` filter allows you to define the expiration for all cached menus. The default value is 300, which is 5 minutes.

**Arguments:**

- `int` `$expiration`: Expiration in seconds.

**Usage Example:**

```
