You should look at “Rewrite Endpoints”, which are much simpler to work with than custom rewrites. And they fit your use case perfectly: http://codex.wordpress.org/Rewrite_API/add_rewrite_endpoint You might add your “show” endpoint like so: function wpsx_37961_add_endpoints() { // Add the “show” rewrite endpoint to all URLs add_rewrite_endpoint(‘show’, EP_ALL); } add_action(‘init’,’wpsx_37961_add_endpoints’); Then you can check for its value … Read more
I want to remove all instances on aff=x regardless of how many other parameters in the URL. Assuming you want to keep any other URL parameters (in any order) and simply remove the aff=number parameter, then you can do something like the following using mod_rewrite in the root .htaccess file: RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*&|)aff=\d+(?:&(.*)|)$ RewriteRule (.*) … Read more
The best way to accomplish this is remove the default sanitize_title filter and replace it with yours, which will encode those characters properly. Here is an implementation of using accents in permalinks. Example: remove_filter( ‘sanitize_title’, ‘sanitize_title_with_dashes’); add_filter( ‘sanitize_title’, ‘restore_raw_title’, 9, 3 ); function sweURLtoCHAR($text) { $url=array( “%C3%81″,”%C3%A1”, “%C3%8D”,”%C3%AD” ); $char=array( “Á”,”á”, “Í”,”í” ); $str = … Read more
The question is about doing this with .htaccess, but why not disabling author pages from within WordPress instead? This would achieve the same result while making the subdirectory concern irrelevant altogether (and also works regardless of permalink structure settings) Sample code that sets all urls to author pages to a 404 error: add_action( ‘template_redirect’, function() … Read more
Problem solved. The plugin “User Access Manager” was found guilty of inserting a .htaccess file into wp-content/uploads/ and not handling calls properly afterwards. I don’t know how UAM plugin could be fixed, but It’s ok to remove the .htaccess file. Nothing else depends on it. (at least in my case)
By creating a physical directory the same as a (virtual) WordPress URL you have created a conflict. The URL needs to be routed through WP, but the default front-controller (the .htaccess code shown above) specifically excludes physical directories from being rewritten. The 403 Forbidden error comes about because you don’t have a directory index document … Read more
I accidentally found a solution. I was using a local XAMPP installation and there was no way around it. Though when I uploaded the site to a live server it worked fine. I hope this helps someone in the future. I’ve seen a lot of people with the same issue but never saw a solution…
I assume you have a custom taxonomy for your CPT, so your CPT should be ‘job’ and your custom taxonomy can then be ‘jobs’ and then you’d have custom terms within that taxonomy for each job type. The Posts then would consist of the individual job with any associated relevant data (rate of pay, hours, … Read more
The output of $_SERVER[‘SERVER_SOFTWARE’] is WebServerX That looks like your problem – check out this line in wp-includes/vars.php: /** * Whether the server software is Apache or something else * @global bool $is_apache */ $is_apache = (strpos($_SERVER[‘SERVER_SOFTWARE’], ‘Apache’) !== false || strpos($_SERVER[‘SERVER_SOFTWARE’], ‘LiteSpeed’) !== false); I think you’ll need to override this variable manually, either … Read more
Have a read of the following thread on the WordPress forum, apparently the AddThis plugin is the reason the hash tag is been appended to the URL. http://wordpress.org/support/topic/random-hashtag-strings-added-to-url-in-firefox
