Why? This is because the pretty permalink: /tag/online-lectures/?cat=7 gets translated to the ugly permalink: index.php?tag=online-lectures&cat=7 And as you can see the /tag/online-lectures part no longer has the emphasis it once had. Afterall /category/arrester?tag=online-lectures would boil down to exactly the same ugly URL. Since the resulting query is an archive, and the most specific template available … Read more
It looks like your add_rewrite_rule function is not quite correct. The first parameter should be the regular expression pattern that you want to match, and the second parameter should be the query string that you want to rewrite the URL to.

It looks like you’re passing the string ‘EP_PERMALINK’ instead of the constant (which is an alias for an int) EP_PERMALINK. It’s possible that PHP 8.1 is stricter than 7.4 when it comes to variable types. WP_Rewrite::generate_rewrite_rules() definitely expects an int for the 2nd parameter ($ep_mask).
There must be a plugin that is affecting your htaccess file. (It shouldn’t.) The htaccess WordPress directives are rewritten when you change the permalinks in Settings. (Which is a good way to get them back if they aren’t there.) I’d do a text search of all plugin’s code for ‘htaccess’. Once you find the offending … Read more
