If I had to guess? The plugin activation hook is firing before the rewrite_rules_array filter is applied, resulting in the rules being flushed before you make changes to them. See here for the Codex-recommended implementation, using the wp_loaded action hook.
Okay I figured it out. Instead of using this rewrite rule: add_rewrite_rule(‘^somepage/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?’,’index.php?p=27&target=$matches[1]&arrival=$matches[2]&departure=$matches[3]’,’top’); I now use this one: add_rewrite_rule(‘^somepage/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?’,’index.php?pagename=somepage&target=$matches[1]&arrival=$matches[2]&departure=$matches[3]’,’top’); And now everything works like I wanted it to. Obviously using the page id instead of the page name was the problem.
The problem has nothing to do with the rewrite rules (though I would suggest using add_rewrite_rule() rather than the more low level approach of altering the rewrite array directly. The same for flush_rewrite_rules(). Also, although as you have it the rules are only flushed once – it would be better to do it on the … Read more
I suspect you have a conflict with your query vars. id is already a WordPress query var, and type is a reserved word. You should use vars that you know will be unique among core and any plugin you may use by prefixing everything, like zilvinas_id and zilvinas_type.
WordPress has two kinds of rewrite rules- internal and external. Internal rules are parsed by WordPress and routed to index.php. External rewrites get written to .htaccess and are not directed to WordPress. Right now your rule is a mix between internal and external- you have it structured as an internal rule, but you have it … Read more
By default you cannot access a file inside the theme folder directly from the browser But that’s just not true.
You can use the Redirection plugin. This plugin supports full regular expressions and another interesting redirection functions.
You need to reset your permalinks… “powercycle them” 🙂 click “Numeric” -> Save then back to “Post Name” and save (or vice versa)
This should cover everything: function wpa_rewite_translate(){ global $wp_rewrite; $wp_rewrite->pagination_base=”pagina”; $wp_rewrite->author_base=”autor”; $wp_rewrite->comments_base=”comentarios”; $wp_rewrite->feed_base=”alimentar”; $wp_rewrite->search_base=”busqueda”; $wp_rewrite->set_category_base( ‘categoria/’ ); $wp_rewrite->set_tag_base( ‘etiqueta/’ ); } add_action( ‘init’, ‘wpa_rewite_translate’ ); Feel free to laugh at my translations, haha. Also, to flush rewrite rules when your theme is activated, add this: function wpa_flush_rewite(){ flush_rewrite_rules(); } add_action( ‘after_switch_theme’, ‘wpa_flush_rewite’ );
[answer updated as wanted] It’s better to hook your function to generate_rewrite_rules so you won’t have fall into infinite loops and flushing rewrite rule on every request. So you can do this: function add_my_rules($wp_rewrite) { $new_rules = array( ‘^cityprofile/\?city=(Sydeny|Melbourne|Brisbane)$’ => $wp_rewrite->preg_index(1) // for 3 cities ); $wp_rewrite->rules = $new_rules + $wp_rewrite->rules; } add_action(‘generate_rewrite_rules’, ‘add_my_rules’); and … Read more
