I simply changed it to this, and it works! add_action( ‘init’, ‘addMyRules’ ); function addMyRules(){ add_rewrite_rule(‘^people/([^/]*)/?’,’index.php?author_name=$matches[1]’,’top’); add_rewrite_tag(‘%author_name%’,'([^&]+)’); flush_rewrite_rules(); }
I really should just try to think things out thoroughly before instantly asking questions. I found a very easy solution. It’s not exactly adding “pages” but it does what I need. When registering the custom post type, there are two things which need to be specified. By default, the parameter hierarchical is set to false. … Read more
Finally figured it out. 1) I was calling the first function at ‘rewrite_rules_array’ instead of ‘init’ which was just dumb. 2) There was still something wrong with it, but I explored another area that seems obvious now, but which I originally glossed over because it seemed to be. https://codex.wordpress.org/Rewrite_API/add_rewrite_endpoint https://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2012/06/07/rewrite-endpoints-api/ Just make an endpoint.

From the wordpress documentations – https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks Using %category% with multiple categories on a post When you assign multiple categories to a post, only one can show up in the permalink. The categories are ordered alphabetically. In each group of sub-categories the order will also be alphabetical. (see Manage Categories). The post will still be accessible … Read more
The easiest solution to this is to hook your add calls on to the last action which gets fired before the rules are rebuilt during the flush process. The first part of the flushing process is to delete the rewrite_rules option. When this happening the following actions will fire: do_action( ‘delete_option’, $option ); do_action( “delete_option_$option”, … Read more
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
For a page, change p=97 to page_id=97 or pagename=albums. p is for the post post type. I also suggest changing your query var to something more unique.
Have you tried codex.wordpress.org/XML-RPC_Support. This code works, in conjunction with the IXR library found at incutio: include(‘IXR_Library.php’); $usr=”theusername”; $pwd = ‘thepassword’; $xmlrpc=”http://not-therealurl.com/xmlrpc.php”; $client = new IXR_Client($xmlrpc); $client -> debug = true; //optional but useful $params = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘post_status’ => ‘draft’, ‘post_title’ => ‘Test Post’, ‘post_author’ => 4, ‘post_excerpt’ => ‘This is my … Read more
I’m not sure if this is the only reason why it wasn’t working but I was missing two things. I wasn’t added any sort of rewrite rule to test on I was testing against pagename instead of query_vars. Here’s the final solution: /** Register Query Vars **/ function theme_custom_query_vars( $vars ){ $vars[] = ‘map’; return … Read more
I ended up following @Kolya Korobochkin advice and added uppercase and lowercase versions of the rewrite rules that include escaped octets. $regular_page_uri = get_page_uri( $page->ID ); $uppercase_page_uri = preg_replace_callback( ‘/%[0-9a-zA-Z]{2}/’, create_function( ‘$x’, ‘return strtoupper( $x[0] );’ ), $regular_page_uri ); The Percent Encode Capital Letter plugin uses a similar approach to convert the octets in every … Read more
