But, in your situation, if I understand correctly, it’s simply not possible to do it in one generic rewrite rule, due to the logic of your new URLs… If all … Read more

Setting $scheme will override the default context. Allowed values are ‘http’, ‘https’, ‘login’, ‘login_post’, ‘admin’, or ‘relative’. It simply overrides the default parameters in URL. For example if … Read more
This is a classical case. All you need to do is to use Rewrite Rules. With Apache, you can do it in .htaccess: # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress More on this in codex.
