Any way to use a custom Parameter for vimeo embed without using an iframe?

You should add a filter on oembed provider to allow customs parameters: add_filter( ‘oembed_fetch_url’, ‘my_oembed_fetch_url’, 10, 3 ); function my_oembed_fetch_url( $provider, $url, $args ) { // You can find the list of defaults providers in WP_oEmbed::__construct() if ( strpos( $provider, ‘vimeo.com’ ) !== false) { // Check the full list of args here: https://developer.vimeo.com/apis/oembed if … Read more

Why does rewrite rule work for page not for custom post type post?

Well, I found the solution. It seems that, when applying a rewrite rule on a custom post type post, one needs to tell WP the custom post type’s name within the rewrite rule itself. Here’s the code that does NOT work (redirects and drops parameter variables instead of rewrite): function add_rewrite_rules($rules) { $newrules = array(‘cpt-slug/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$’ … Read more

Making extra parameters optional

Two points: Your rule isn’t particularly specific. For numeric matches you should be specific about it and specify a) digits and b) how many digits. Year would be ([0-9]{4}), month/day would be ([0-9]{1,2}). You can’t do it with one rule. Add three separate rules instead. add_rewrite_rule( ‘whats-on/([0-9]{4})/?$’, ‘index.php?page_id=71&event_year=$matches[1]’,’top’); add_rewrite_rule( ‘whats-on/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/?$’, ‘index.php?page_id=71&event_year=$matches[1]&event_month=$matches[2]’,’top’); add_rewrite_rule( ‘whats-on/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]{1,2})/?$’, ‘index.php?page_id=71&event_year=$matches[1]&event_month=$matches[2]&event_day=$matches[3]’,’top’);

Detecting $_GET parameters from any page + Cookie

This should work, though untested. <?php add_action(‘send_headers’, ‘affiliate_redirect’); function affiliate_redirect() { // it’s possible to use ‘if( !empty( $_GET[‘affid’]) )’ if( isset($_GET[‘affid’]) && ” != $_GET[‘affid’] ) { if( empty($_COOKIE[‘affid’]) ) setcookie(‘affid’, $_GET[‘affid’], time()+2592000, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”); header(‘Location: http://mysite.com/about/’); exit; } }

Any way to use a custom Parameter for youtube embed without using an iframe?

No need for a plugin, You can simply use the Oembed class’s oembed_result filter hook like this: function Oembed_youtube_no_title($html,$url,$args){ $url_string = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_QUERY); parse_str($url_string, $id); if (isset($id[‘v’])) { return ‘<iframe width=”‘.$args[‘width’].'” height=”‘.$args[‘height’].'” src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/’.$id[‘v’].’?rel=0&showinfo=0″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>’; } return $html; } add_filter(‘oembed_result’,’Oembed_youtube_no_title’,10,3); so just paste this code in your theme’s functions.php file, setup the width and height … Read more
