    Hi, thank your for your plugin, it is very helpful, because my project is highly customized, some rest APIs rely on external interfaces. I hope that this type apis has a shorter cache timeout, while other apis have a longer cache timeout. So may I ask if there is any method to set different cache timeouts for different rest APIs for our wordpress rest api. If we can make it, please let me know, thank you in advance!

    Hi @superjin001

    Thank you for using our plugin!

    Yes, you can do something like this:

    /**
 * Change the timeout for different endpoints.
 *
 * @param int $timeout The timeout as set in the settings.
 * @param array $options An array of options, containing the current uri ('uri'), the object type ('object_type'), the request headers ('request_headers') and the request method ('request_method').
 *
 * @return int
 */
function wprc_variable_timeout( $timeout, $options ) {
	if ( false !== strpos( 'wp/v2/posts', $options['uri'] ) ) {
		$timeout = DAY_IN_SECONDS;
	}

	return $timeout;
}

add_filter( 'wp_rest_cache/timeout', 'wprc_variable_timeout', 10, 2 );

    Hi @Richard Korthuis?, thank you for your quick reply, I tried the way you told, and it works, I didn’t expect a free plugin can be made so good and support quick Q&A, thank you again!
