You can prevent a “hard” flush, which updates .htaccess (Apache) or web.config (IIS), with the flush_rewrite_rules_hard filter.
We can also use the __return_false helper function here.
add_filter( 'flush_rewrite_rules_hard', '__return_false' );
This code can be placed in your own plugin or a theme’s functions.php file.
