Always use the built-in versions. Don’t waste time with old WordPress installations – other plugins will break there too. See wp-includes/script-loader.php for the list of available files. Quite a lot. 🙂 And avoid remote resources. Some (Google) fail to send the scripts gzip compressed to all supporting browsers, others may not be reliable enough. There … Read more
So, the canonical URL is https://example.com/…. (You appear to be describing a pointless intermediary redirect? You should only redirect to the final canonical URL, no need for anything in between.) This is just a standard HTTP to HTTPS redirect. You can do this using mod_rewrite at the top of your .htaccess file. For example: RewriteEngine … Read more
Hi @mrclay: Good questions. WordPress Multisite is Many Independant Sites, not Many Dependant Sites To answer your aside, WordPress multisite was designed to be a collections of independent WordPress installs collected into one where each site is likely to be very different, unlike your use-case. So each site has it’s own theme and WordPress wants … Read more
Filter category_link so WordPress creates slashed URLs for categories, and redirect_canonical so it accepts those URLs: add_filter( ‘category_link’, ‘wpse_71666_trailingslash_cat_url’ ); add_filter( ‘redirect_canonical’, ‘wpse_71666_trailingslash_cat_url’, 20, 2 ); function wpse_71666_trailingslash_cat_url( $url, $request=”” ) { if ( ‘category_link’ === current_filter() ) return rtrim( $url, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” ) . “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/”; if ( “$url/” === $request and is_category() ) return $request; … Read more
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
