The redirect_canonical function in /wp-includes/canonical.php is called on any given URL and will attempt to best-guess the URL the user wanted, and redirect them to there, when a URL does not exist. It has a whole huge amount of code to do this for all sorts of common errors.
It’s in the table postmeta with the meta_key of _wp_old_slug If you wanted to clear all of the old slugs you could use this: DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE meta_key = ‘_wp_old_slug’;
Set the ‘with_front’ parameter for the post type’s slug to FALSE: ‘rewrite’ => array ( ‘slug’ => ‘posttypeslug’, ‘with_front’ => FALSE ),
If you want to keep ‘authors’ as the base slug in the permalinks, i.e. example.com/authors/stephen-king/ for the ‘authors’ CPT, example.com/authors/stephen-king/the-shining/ for the ‘books’ CPT and example.com/authors/stephen-king/the-shining/chapter-3/ for the ‘chapters’ CPT, WordPress will think pretty much everything is an ‘authors’ post or a hierarchical child of an ‘authors’ post and, since that is not the case, … Read more
You can get the current URL through home_url( $wp->request ). Try the example below: global $wp; // get current url with query string. $current_url = home_url( $wp->request ); // get the position where ‘/page.. ‘ text start. $pos = strpos($current_url , ‘/page’); // remove string from the specific postion $finalurl = substr($current_url,0,$pos); echo $finalurl;
Let’s go simple If I understand OP well, your problem is that urls containing a tilde are matched at all. All other answers focus on the fact that sanitization for query strips out some characters before perform the query, however one should be capable to prevent a rewrite rule to don’t match under some circumstances. … Read more
Follow the advice on this question as you did already, but add this to your code: add_action( ‘generate_rewrite_rules’, ‘fix_literature_category_pagination’ ); function fix_literature_category_pagination( $wp_rewrite ) { unset($wp_rewrite->rules[‘literature/([^/]+)/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$’]); $wp_rewrite->rules = array( ‘literature/?$’ => $wp_rewrite->index . ‘?post_type=literature’, ‘literature/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$’ => $wp_rewrite->index . ‘?post_type=literature&paged=’ . $wp_rewrite->preg_index( 1 ), ‘literature/([^/]+)/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$’ => $wp_rewrite->index . ‘?literature_category=’ . $wp_rewrite->preg_index( 1 ) . ‘&paged=’ . … Read more
Ok I think I might have a solution. I have no idea if this is the right way to accomplish this, but as for now it’s the only thing that seems to work. add_filter(‘rewrite_rules_array’, ‘mmp_rewrite_rules’); function mmp_rewrite_rules($rules) { $newRules = array(); $newRules[‘portfolio/(.+)/(.+?).html$’] = ‘index.php?project=$matches[2]’; $newRules[‘portfolio/(.+)/?$’] = ‘index.php?project_category=$matches[1]’; return array_merge($newRules, $rules); } add_filter(‘request’, ‘mmp_rewrite_request’); function mmp_rewrite_request($vars) … Read more
The get_post_permalink() funciton fetches the link to a post depending on its “permanent” link plus your custom rewrite rules that changes ?p=123 into for e.g. my-beautiful-sunday-diary. The get_permalink() function is more “basic” but as well more versatile in what it does: For a post_type of page, it uses get_page_link() attachment, it uses get_attachment_link() post, it … Read more
This seem to work: Create the rewrite rules like post-type/post-name.html. You can use arrays to create the rules for just some set of post types instead of doing it for all of them. add_action( ‘rewrite_rules_array’, ‘rewrite_rules’ ); function rewrite_rules( $rules ) { $new_rules = array(); foreach ( get_post_types() as $t ) $new_rules[ $t . ‘/([^/]+)\.html$’ … Read more
