The Why Part If we have a page called technical and try to load: example.tld/technical/99999999999999999999 then the 99999999999999999999 part is treated as a page query variable with the value of 2147483647. The reason is this rewrite rule for pages: according to the handy Monkeyman Rewrite Analyzer by Jan Fabry. This part of the WP_Query::get_posts(): if … Read more
It is possible to pass an array with allowed protocols to the esc_url() function. For data-URLs this has to contain the data scheme, as this is not whitelisted by wp_allowed_protocols() as default. esc_url( $data_url, array( ‘data’ ) );
In order to do partition your blogs like this you’re going to need to write a custom plugin similar to the WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin. Here’s how your plugin needs to work. Create a sunrise.php file for your plugin, and properly define(‘SUNRISE’,true); in your wp-config.php file. Create a table which maps the tuples {blog_slug, … Read more
another option – redirect /admin/ to wp-login.php with a parse_query action hook: function wpa53048_parse_query( $query ){ if( $query->query_vars[‘pagename’] == ‘admin’ ): wp_redirect( wp_login_url() ); exit; endif; } add_action( ‘parse_query’, ‘wpa53048_parse_query’ ); EDIT Well the above apparently only works with certain permalink structures. Here’s another method hooked to parse_request: function wpa53048_parse_request( $query ){ if( $query->request == … Read more
Create an endpoint. In the callback function for the endpoint call your plugin functions internally, so the whole WordPress environment is available and you are still on the same domain, no matter where the plugin URL is. Plus, make sure not to flush the rewrite rules on every page load, use the (de)activation hook for … Read more
Have a read of the following thread on the WordPress forum, apparently the AddThis plugin is the reason the hash tag is been appended to the URL. http://wordpress.org/support/topic/random-hashtag-strings-added-to-url-in-firefox
Actually, my recommendation would be to do things a bit differently. You can add a custom rewrite endpoint to WordPress to handle these files specifically. For example, the URL http://site.com/download-xml/the_filename would automatically download the specified file as an attachment. First, you need to add a custom rewrite endpoint to set this up: function add_endpoint() { … Read more
It is okay that the URL changes to http://mysite.com/contact/#rocket, but you should change the way you are defining your anchor on the target page. Instead of using this method <a name=”rocket”></a> <div> <h3>The Title</h3> <p>some text</p> </div> You should add an ID to the content you want to jump to like this: <div id=”rocket”> <h3>The … Read more
Why? I think the reason why a) domain.com/123 is not redirected back to b) domain.com/123/post-slug with the /%post_id%/%postname%/ permalinks settings, is that the matched rule is: [matched_rule] => ([0-9]+)(/[0-9]+)?/?$ You can get that information from the global $wp object. There are other useful informations in $wpavailable after the wp action: Example (post): domain.com/123/post-slug/ [query_vars] => … Read more
You can explode URL by ? and take the first part: $url = explode( ‘?’, esc_url_raw( add_query_arg( array() ) ) ); $no_query_args = $url[0];
