why is are these rewrite_tags and rules not working?

Your rewriterules arn’t correct anymore. You changed add_rewrite_rule(‘^video/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/[^/]*)’, ‘index.php?pagename=video&video_id=$matches[1]&video_src=$matches[2]&video_title=$matches[3]’, ‘top’); To add_rewrite_rule(‘^video/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/[^/]*)’, ‘video/&video_id=$matches[1]&video_src=$matches[2]&video_title=$matches[3]’, ‘bottom’); The correct rewriterules for your pages are: Video add_rewrite_rule(‘^video/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/[^/]*)’, ‘index.php?pagename=video&video_id=$matches[1]&video_src=$matches[2]&video_title=$matches[3]’, ‘top’); Team add_rewrite_rule(‘^videos/team/([^/]*)/([^/]*)’, ‘index.php?pagename=videos&team_id=$matches[1]&team_slug=$matches[2]’, ‘top’); League add_rewrite_rule(‘^videos/league/([^/]*)/([^/]*)’, ‘index.php?pagename=videos&league_id=$matches[1]&league_slug=$matches[2]’, ‘top’); For team and league I assumed your WordPress page is “videos”. If it is the subpage then you have to change “pagename=videos” … Read more

flush_rewrite_rules() cancels the effect of add_rewrite_rule()

Rewrite rules are stored in an option. When flush_rewrite_rules() is called, this option is removed, WordPress collects all rules registered during the current request and writes that option new into the database. You registration doesn’t run on every request, so it doesn’t exist, when the option is rewritten. Register the rule on ever page load, … Read more

Making extra parameters optional

Two points: Your rule isn’t particularly specific. For numeric matches you should be specific about it and specify a) digits and b) how many digits. Year would be ([0-9]{4}), month/day would be ([0-9]{1,2}). You can’t do it with one rule. Add three separate rules instead. add_rewrite_rule( ‘whats-on/([0-9]{4})/?$’, ‘index.php?page_id=71&event_year=$matches[1]’,’top’); add_rewrite_rule( ‘whats-on/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/?$’, ‘index.php?page_id=71&event_year=$matches[1]&event_month=$matches[2]’,’top’); add_rewrite_rule( ‘whats-on/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]{1,2})/?$’, ‘index.php?page_id=71&event_year=$matches[1]&event_month=$matches[2]&event_day=$matches[3]’,’top’);

Prettified page URL w/ query var redirects to prettified page URL w/o query var

I think you just have to add kategori to the array of query vars: EDIT- after much iteration we’ve arrived at a solution. the original code seemed to be working, but only with specific permalink settings, as I was mistakenly routing to a post instead of a page. rather than p=, it should be pagename=, … Read more

Clean URLs for custom $_GET variables

You should look at “Rewrite Endpoints”, which are much simpler to work with than custom rewrites. And they fit your use case perfectly: http://codex.wordpress.org/Rewrite_API/add_rewrite_endpoint You might add your “show” endpoint like so: function wpsx_37961_add_endpoints() { // Add the “show” rewrite endpoint to all URLs add_rewrite_endpoint(‘show’, EP_ALL); } add_action(‘init’,’wpsx_37961_add_endpoints’); Then you can check for its value … Read more

Custom Endpoint Gives 404 Header

I’m not sure if this is the only reason why it wasn’t working but I was missing two things. I wasn’t added any sort of rewrite rule to test on I was testing against pagename instead of query_vars. Here’s the final solution: /** Register Query Vars **/ function theme_custom_query_vars( $vars ){ $vars[] = ‘map’; return … Read more

Cyrillic characters in rewrite rules cause 404 Not Found errors

I ended up following @Kolya Korobochkin advice and added uppercase and lowercase versions of the rewrite rules that include escaped octets. $regular_page_uri = get_page_uri( $page->ID ); $uppercase_page_uri = preg_replace_callback( ‘/%[0-9a-zA-Z]{2}/’, create_function( ‘$x’, ‘return strtoupper( $x[0] );’ ), $regular_page_uri ); The Percent Encode Capital Letter plugin uses a similar approach to convert the octets in every … Read more

Does add_rewrite_rule(..) only accept “index.php” as redirect target?

There are two different rewrite systems at play when you have pretty permalinks enabled. The first is Apache’s mod_rewrite, which basically sends any request that isn’t for a physical directory or file to the main WordPress index.php file. The second system is internal to WordPress, and handles conversion of pretty permalinks into their component query … Read more

Case-insensitive add_rewrite_rules in WordPress functions

As the answer below mentions, it is not possible to pass a flag to add_rewrite_rule(); however, it is possible to use an inline modifier. In your example, you would do this: $aNewRules = array(‘(?i)my-books/?$’ => ‘index.php?pagename=my-books’); (note the (?i) in the regular expression). The advantage of this approach is that your rewrite rules are much … Read more

WordPress Custom URL Rewrites

I do something similar with custom records called shops and their specific ID number. In my case I want http://example.com/shops/UNIDrecordthatsreallylong to load with the variable shop_unid being the UNID record. Here’s my working function: //Shop page rewrites function shop_rewrite() { add_rewrite_rule(‘^shops/([^/]*)/?’,’index.php?pagename=shops&shop_unid=$matches[1]’,’top’); add_rewrite_tag(‘%shop_unid%’,'([^&]+)’); } add_action(‘init’, ‘shop_rewrite’); Note that I used pagename instead of the post number. … Read more
