# Maple GDPR Cookies - FIXED VERSION v4.0.1
## 🔧 Critical Fix Applied
### Issue Fixed:
**Fatal Error:** Call to undefined function `wp_cache_delete_group()`
### Root Cause:
The function `wp_cache_delete_group()` does not exist in WordPress core. This was causing a fatal error during plugin activation at line 273.
### Solution Implemented:
Completely rewrote the `mgc_clear_all_caches()` function (lines 145-190) to use proper WordPress cache functions:
1. **wp_cache_flush()** - Clears all WordPress object cache
2. **delete_transient()** - Removes plugin-specific transients
3. **wp_cache_delete()** - Deletes specific cache keys
4. **Database query** - Cleans up orphaned transient entries
5. **Action hooks** - Allows other plugins to integrate
### What Changed:
#### BEFORE (Lines 145-150 - BROKEN):
```php
function mgc_clear_all_caches() {
wp_cache_delete_group('maple-gdpr-cookies'); // ❌ Doesn't exist
delete_transient('mgc_settings');
}
```
#### AFTER (Lines 145-190 - FIXED):
```php
function mgc_clear_all_caches() {
// Method 1: Clear WordPress object cache
if (function_exists('wp_cache_flush')) {
wp_cache_flush();
}
// Method 2: Clear plugin-specific transients
global $wpdb;
$transients = $wpdb->get_col(
"SELECT option_name FROM $wpdb->options
WHERE option_name LIKE '_transient_mgc_%'"
);
foreach ($transients as $transient) {
$transient_key = str_replace('_transient_', '', $transient);
delete_transient($transient_key);
}
// Method 3: Clear specific plugin caches
$cache_keys = array('mgc_settings', 'mgc_stats', 'mgc_consent_logs');
foreach ($cache_keys as $key) {
wp_cache_delete($key, 'maple-gdpr-cookies');
delete_transient($key);
}
// Method 4: WooCommerce compatibility
if (function_exists('wc_delete_shop_order_transients')) {
wc_delete_shop_order_transients();
}
// Method 5: Extensibility hook
do_action('mgc_clear_caches');
}
```
