Remove slashes (both before and after) in relative post url

It’s because you’re not actually putting the result of ltrim() and rtrim() back into the variable. Those functions return the trimmed value, they don’t modify the passed variable. So you need to do this: $post_url_rel = wp_make_link_relative(get_permalink( $post_id )); $post_url_rel = ltrim($post_url_rel, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”); $post_url_rel = rtrim($post_url_rel, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”); Or better yet, just use trim(), which will … Read more

Creating Search Engine Friendly URL’s with Word Press

A quick lesson in SEO … Meta tags, meta keywords, page architecture, and link structure will only get you so far. It’s important to have things set up, yes, but what’s more important to search engine rankings is your content. Firstly, your question is slightly misleading. Your main site isn’t even built on WordPress! The … Read more

How to reset canonical URLs / fix redirect loop

Do you use a plugin called Redirection? It has a setting that will automatically create redirects when a post permalink is changed, and if the post is renamed and then changed back to the original name, you get a loop. And if a category is removed, WP will reassign a post to the default category … Read more

Add source URL from Feed WordPress (Syndication) plugin to a custom field in post editor

What about the “syndication_permalink”? This is automatically pulled from the feed by FeedWordpress. Then put something like <?php if (is_syndicated()) : ?> <p><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/24222/<?php the_syndication_permalink(); ?>” target=”_blank”>Source</a></p> <?php endif; ?> in your single post loop.

Viewing category pages without the word ‘category’ in URL

Basically a duplicate of this question. It comes up a lot, and the remove category base functionality probably should be an option in WordPress to be honest. Here was my answer from there: No Category Base plugin to remove the /category/ bit from the URL. 🙂 If you have a page with the same name … Read more

Easiest way to simulate WordPress’s URL resolution to retrieve post ID, etc?

As Weston mentioned, if you’re within WordPress and you know what blog the URL came from, then ask WordPress for the blog ID. But if you’re really, really sure there’s no better method in this case than parsing a URL, then here you go: $url=”http://myblog.mysite.com/2012/03/16/whatever/”; $domain = parse_url( $url, PHP_URL_HOST ); // This could be … Read more

Clean URL link for page without number

This is because your site already has a post or page (6 in your case) with the slug “photo.” They might be in the trash, or pending as drafts, or whatever … but WordPress automatically appends number to prevent name conflicts. So go through your site, and figure out which other pages are trying to … Read more

Using a portfolio_category slug in wordpress URL

add ‘rewrite’ => array(‘slug’ => ‘portfolio-categories’), but be sure to remove (not sure why that’s there, it tries hides the slug yet tries to rename it to “products” at the same time?): ‘rewrite’ => array( ‘with_front’ => false, ‘slug’ => ‘products’ ), So it looks like this: function mysite_post_types() { register_post_type(‘portfolio’, array( ‘labels’ => array( … Read more

Get closest page ID from URL

You should be able to get the current url from $url = add_query_arg(). Then assuming, the structure: www.example.com/page/subpage/news/ID/post you can use preg_match to extract /page/subpage/news. Then it would be simple matter of using get_page_by_path();. If that fails you can then check /page/subpage/ and finally /page.

Site URL always in front of other URLs

You need to start your links with http:// Examples: The link facebook.com/mypage becomes http://facebook.com/mypage The link www.commentorsite.com/ becomes http://www.commentorsite.com/ This will stop the links becoming http://mysite.com/www.commentorsite.com/ or http://mysite.com/facebook.com/mypage
