Hooks and Cache - El Forum - 01-16-2010

I call a function inside the parent controller so it executes no matter what function is called for that controller. However, when I enable caching for a function (i.e. index) the function inside the parent controller is bypassed when that page is viewed. I assume I can still call a function using hooks but I was wondering at what stage to make such a call (i.e. pre_controller & post_controller).

I think using a pre_controller hook would work, but it sounds like it might be something you could use the controller's constructor for?

Edit:
Nevermind I see what you mean, I would try pre_controller or maybe doing something with cache_override

Thanks for the advice. I will try this solution and post results.

I guess You need to use a pre_system hook, it's the only hook called before the cache file check.
