To use multiple cache folders in CodeIgniter, you can set up multiple cache directories in your configuration file. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Open the config.php file located in application/config folder.
  2. Look for the $config['cache_path'] setting in the file and set it to the desired location of your cache folder. For example:
1
$config['cache_path'] = 'application/cache';


  1. To add multiple cache folders, you can create an array in the config.php file and list all cache folders. For example:
1
2
3
4
$config['cache_paths'] = array(
    'default' => 'application/cache',
    'second_cache' => 'application/cache2',
);


  1. In your code, you can specify which cache folder to use by passing the cache path key to the get_instance()->load->driver('cache', array('adapter' => 'file', 'backup' => 'file', 'key' => 'default')); method. For example:
1
$this->load->driver('cache', array('adapter' => 'file', 'backup' => 'file', 'key' => 'second_cache'));


By following these steps, you can use multiple cache folders in your CodeIgniter application.
