Building Custom URLs in WordPress discusses how to use Pretty Permalinks to display posts using additional parameters. Jump to the section on Custom Query Vars. That’s where your situation begins to be addressed directly. In particular, you may want to use the example using ‘pre_get_posts‘ to retrieve parameters and adjust the WP_Query using a meta_query, … Read more
The get_query_var() function and/or method only works with registered WordPress query_vars. You can actually view the method via get_query_var(). The normal URL parameters you can access with the normal PHP super global $_GET.
WordPress keeps removing query var from the URL
Looks like all I needed to do was put the template_include filter inside of the init action. Source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/50037707/5749974 add_action( ‘init’, function () { $product_base = ltrim( get_option( ‘woocommerce_permalinks’ )[ ‘product_base’ ], “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” ); add_rewrite_rule( “{$product_base}/([^/]+)/test”, ‘index.php?product=$matches[1]&test=1’, ‘top’ ); add_filter( ‘template_include’, function( $template ) { if ( get_query_var( ‘test’ ) ) { $template = get_stylesheet_directory() … Read more
Query vars to return the homepage
Creating an alternate path for a page
Since ‘submission‘ is a child page of ‘events‘, the rewrite rule should include the parent path add_rewrite_rule(‘events/([^/]*)/submission/?’, ‘index.php?pagename=events/submission&epl=$matches[1]’, ‘top’);
You’re adding the rewrite tag on admin_init, so it doesn’t exist on front end requests. Add your rewrite stuff on init instead.
You want get_field() (which returns the value), not the_field() (which echo’s the value): $var = get_field( ‘menu2’ );
After a bit of digging over the weekend, I found the solution and indeed, it is a rewrite rule with the paged variable added add_rewrite_rule(‘collection/men/page/([^/]+)/?$’,’index.php?post_type=collection&men=yes&paged=$matches[1]’,’top’); Pagination now works in the custom template loaded by query variable. i.e. localhost/sample-site/collection/men/page/2 loads the next page instead of a 404 error
