WP_Object_Cache::replace() WordPress Method

The WordPress Object Cache is a powerful tool that allows you to store data in memory for quick retrieval. The replace() method allows you to replace an existing object in the cache with a new object. This is useful if you need to update the data in the cache without having to regenerate the entire cache.

WP_Object_Cache::replace( int|string $key, mixed $data, string $group = 'default', int $expire ) #

	public function replace( $key, $data, $group = 'default', $expire = 0 ) {
		if ( empty( $group ) ) {
			$group = 'default';
		}

		$id = $key;
		if ( $this->multisite && ! isset( $this->global_groups[ $group ] ) ) {
			$id = $this->blog_prefix . $key;
		}

		if ( ! $this->_exists( $id, $group ) ) {
			return false;
		}

		return $this->set( $key, $data, $group, (int) $expire );
	}
