Summary

  • recover early Ultimate Multisite settings directly from sitemeta when a cached network-option miss hides an existing row
  • remove stale notoptions entries and avoid rewriting the complete settings array after a database error
  • avoid caching domain lookup misses when the underlying query failed
  • add regressions for stale settings markers and failed settings/domain queries

Why

WordPress network-option reads can cache a missing-option marker when a database query returns an error. With persistent object caching, that false negative can outlive the transient error and disable settings-dependent mapped-domain bootstrap. Domain lookups had the same risk because query errors were cached as valid misses.

Verification

  • vendor/bin/phpcs inc/functions/sunrise.php
  • vendor/bin/phpcs inc/models/class-domain.php
  • vendor/bin/phpstan analyse inc/functions/sunrise.php inc/models/class-domain.php --no-progress
  • vendor/bin/phpunit --no-coverage --filter Sunrise_Functions_Test
  • vendor/bin/phpunit --no-coverage --filter '/test_get_by_(site|domain)/'
  • pre-commit quality hook: PHPCS and PHPStan passed

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved early settings retrieval when cached settings markers are stale or database access temporarily fails.
    • Prevented failed settings lookups from being incorrectly cached as missing.
    • Domain lookups can now retry after database errors instead of retaining an incorrect “not found” result.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for stale cache markers and database-error recovery scenarios.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR updates early settings retrieval to report database errors and updates domain lookups to avoid caching failed queries as missing results. Regression tests cover stale cache markers, settings errors, and domain lookup errors.

Changes

Early settings recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Centralize early settings loading and validation
inc/functions/sunrise.php, tests/WP_Ultimo/Functions/Sunrise_Functions_Test.php
wu_get_settings_early() returns a WP_Error when its fallback query fails. Early reads return the configured default, and early saves propagate the error. Tests cover stale notoptions markers and database failures.

Domain lookup cache errors

Layer / File(s) Summary
Guard negative domain caching
inc/models/class-domain.php, tests/WP_Ultimo/Managers/Domain_Manager_Test.php
get_by_site() and get_by_domain() cache missing results only after successful queries. Tests verify that failed queries do not create negative cache entries.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to f920b
