Enable Object Cache Pro for WordPress Doc Update

Re: Enable Object Cache Pro for WordPress

Priority: Medium (choose one, remove the other options)

Issue Description:

Instructions are woefully out of date. None of them work.

Suggested Resolution

Go through the whole page and rewrite it. The most heinous part is "config/application.php". That file does not exist.

Hi @RayHollister thanks for opening this issue. I just want to make sure, are you able to successfully set up Object Cache Pro following the non-composer steps here? config/application.php is only applicable to composer managed WordPress sites

[RayHollister]

No, when I followed the Non-Composer section instructions, it did not set up correctly. I was only able to get it working using a combination of some of the steps in the Non-Composer section and adaptations of the steps in the Composer-Managed section. Unfortunately I did not document what it took to get it working. I kind of had to poke around and try things until it worked correctly. Also unfortunately, I am still unable to get it working correctly on Lando. In order to develop locally I have to delete the object-cache.php drop-in file and restore it before I push my changes.

@RayHollister Can you share what failed when you tried to use the Terminus command? Was there an error that was visible in the Workflow Log? Did you previously or do you currently have other object cache plugins installed (like WP Redis)?

The Composer instructions are specifically for sites using the WordPress (Composer Managed) Bedrock-based upstream. The files and functions that you refer to are unique to Bedrock-based WordPress sites. See: https://roots.io/bedrock/docs/configuration/
