First, your additional line comes too late. The rule before catches everything you want to match. Second, it doesn’t what you want. Your … RewriteRule /([0-9]+/?)$ /about/latest-news/$1 [NC,L] … matches requests like example.com//0000000000000000000/ or example.com/about/latest-news/2010/ (infinite loop!). The first argument for RewriteRule omits the starting /. To match year archives you need rather: RewriteRule ^(\d\d\d\d)/?$ … Read more
For simple galleries, I usually code something up using Magic Fields. It gives the client an easy to use interface for adding images via the media library, with drag-and-drop reordering. Then I’ll use a jQuery slider on the front-end, or I’ll write my own.

For one project, I created a Custom Post Type called FAQ. From there I just used a page-template to display all FAQ titles with the snippet and a “..Continue Reading” link .

And do a custom query for these $_GET values: $date_query = new WP_Query( ‘year=” . $_GET[“year’] . ‘&monthnum=’ . $_GET[‘month’] . ‘&day=’ . $_GET[‘day’] ); Then your custom loop: <?php if … Read more
