Plugin main file is constantly been fired on every website visit
Greetings to everyone!
I'm working on a WordPress plugin, and while debugging something with the error_log
function in the plugin main file, I noticed that the main plugin file is constantly fired...
The plugin is more complex but it's stracture can be considered as:
myplugin:
-- myplugin.php
-- fileA.php
-- fileB.php
In myplugin.php the code is like this:
if (!defined(ABSPATH)) {
exit();
}
include_once plugin_dir_path(__FILE__) . fileA.php;
include_once plugin_dir_path(__FILE__) . fileB.php;
class main_class
{
static function __construct()
{
error_log(in install main_class);
new FileAclass();
new FileBclass();
}
}
$test = new main_class();
error_log(after test);
and the fileA.php, fileB.php like this respectively:
class FileAclass{
error_log(in class FileAclass);
function __construct(){
add_action(...)
}
}
class FileBclass{
error_log(in class FileBclass);
function __construct(){
add_action(...)
}
}
Please, note that the above is just a pseudocode. Let me know if the original code might be helpful.
When I zip the plugin and upload it the activation is done without errors but the debug file is like this:
in install main_class
in class FileAclass
in class FileBclass
after test
in install main_class
in class FileAclass
in class FileBclass
after test
in install main_class
in class FileAclass
in class FileBclass
after test
...
and the above text is repeated while navigating in the website (front and in wp-admin).
What I have tried and didn't work:
- with and without the
register_activation_hook
and__construct
in the classes - with
register_activation_hook
and::
notation without__construct
just by calling ainstall() static function
in the classes - deleted everything in the main page and left only the
error_log(some text)
. That made me crazy... the same thing happened... - wrapped the
$test = main_class();
code withif (class_exists)
logic - installed the plugin in other domain with shared hosting instead of a VPS
Really, I have tried everything I could think of and find through google searches.
Any ideas why this happens??? Is the above behavior normal?
Thank you in advance.
