Why don’t we create our own template file, and do our stuff there? Here’s what I’m going to do: Create a custom page template Call the required plugin’s functions inside the page Redirect the plugins URLs to the page Get the query var and process the request – The page template Let’s create a simple … Read more
@kureikain’s answer looks great, and it probably works really well in a wide variety of circumstances. But for author URLs specifically, there’s a simpler way. Change the author_base, like so: global $wp_rewrite; $wp_rewrite->author_base = “people”; $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(); You should only need to run this once, perhaps on a plugin activation. Updating WordPress should not affect this … Read more
There are two steps: function my_plugin_rewrite_rule() { global $wp; $wp->add_query_var( ‘show_hello_world’ ); add_rewrite_rule( ‘show-hello-world/?$’, ‘index.php?show_hello_world=1’, ‘top’ ); } add_action( ‘init’, ‘my_plugin_rewrite_rule’ ); That takes care of rewriting. Remember to flush the rewrite rules. Now, your plugin can check for get_query_var( ‘show_hello_world’ ); and load a certain file: function my_plugin_template( $path ) { if ( get_query_var( … Read more
You can do this with a rewrite rule from within WordPress. Take a look at the documentation for add_rewrite_rule. Something like this: <?php add_action(‘init’, ‘wpse65855_rewrite’); function wpse65855_rewrite() { add_rewrite_rule( ‘^photos/?$’, // the rule regex ‘index.php?taxonomy=category&term=photos’, // where you want the rule to go ‘top’ // the priority. Make this one go first ); } You … Read more
The rewrite API won’t redirect – it just “maps” URL structures to query strings – you’ll need to do this yourself. First things first, fix that rewrite rule: ‘episode/([^/]+)/transcript’; // Matches anything that follows transcript, not what we want! ‘episode/([^/]+)/transcript/?$’; // Matches only “episode/name/transcript”, optionally with a trailing slash Now bring in a helper function: … Read more
This approach should work for you: <?php /** * Plugin Name: Rewrite Shortcode **/ add_shortcode( ‘myplugin’, ‘mp_shortcode’ ); function mp_shortcode(){ return ‘<p>Filter: ‘ . get_query_var( ‘filter’ ) . ‘</p>’; } add_action( ‘init’, ‘mp_rewrite’ ); function mp_rewrite(){ $post_id = 2; add_rewrite_rule( ‘myplugin/([^/]+)/?$’, ‘index.php?p=’ . $post_id . ‘&filter=$matches[1]’, ‘top’ ); add_rewrite_tag( ‘%filter%’, ‘([^/]+)’ ); } ?> I … Read more
You need a rewrite rule! First things first let’s get that in place: function wpse_226796_rewrite_rule( $rules ) { global $wp_rewrite; // http://php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.syntax.php $regex = ‘postcomment-page/([1-9][0-9]*)-paged-([1-9][0-9]*)\.html’; $query = sprintf( ‘%s?pagename=postcomment-page&postid=%s&paged=%s’, $wp_rewrite->index, $wp_rewrite->preg_index( 1 ), $wp_rewrite->preg_index( 2 ) ); // Push our rule to the top of $rules return array( $regex => $query ) + $rules; } … Read more
Yes, this is possible, because your genres structure is /music/genres/[genre-name]. If it was /music/[genre-name] it would be complicated because it would conflict with /music/[post-name]. You just have to keep the order in mind. The rewrite rules should be ordered from most specific to least specific. If you first register the post type and then the … Read more
(.*) matches everything, so it will “eat up” the extra characters (it is “greedy”). If the URL is /tax1/foo/tax2/bar/, the first (.*) will be foo/tax2/bar/, so nothing is left for the second match. Instead of (.*) you can use the “non-greedy” version (.+?). This will match as much as possible, but still keep the rest … Read more
Just add this to your functions.php or plugin. add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘attachment_redirect’, 1 ); /** * Redirect any attachment page to their parent with 301 redirection */ function attachment_redirect() { global $post; if ( is_attachment() AND isset( $post->post_parent) AND is_numeric( $post->post_parent ) ) { wp_redirect( get_permalink( $post->post_parent ), 301 ); exit(); } }
