Search RegEx is a good plugin to be able to search and replace with Grep through all posts and pages to fix things like broken URLs. And no need to export the DB and use a text editor; that’s overkill for simply adding the /wordpress.
Preventing users from entering URLs manually in the address bar is not possible in WordPress, or from any site, for that matter. It can only be done via a browser plugin. However, redirecting users or displaying a 404 page for a certain URL is easy to do and there are several WordPress plugins for blocking … Read more
You don’t need a separate rule in your .htaccess. Add … define( ‘WP_CONTENT_DIR’, ‘YOUR_LOCAL_PATH’ ); define( ‘WP_CONTENT_URL’, ‘YOUR_PUBLIC_PATH’ ); … to your wp-config.php. Do not write into wp-settings.php. This file will be overwritten during the next update – never touch a core file.
You should be using a filter outside of your template for this: add_filter( ‘template_include’, ‘wpa62226_template_include’, 1, 1 ); function wpa62226_template_include( $template ){ if( is_page( ‘some-page’ ) ) : global $wp_query; $wp_query->set_404(); status_header( 404 ); $template = locate_template( ‘404.php’ ); endif; return $template; } Your code is executed before the template is loaded, so it becomes … Read more
Yes, this is achievable and quite simple to do so. Go to Settings > Permalinks in your admin area. There you should be able to select Custom and use a value like (if you want all URLs to start with /carhire/uk/) /carhire/uk/%postname%/ If your logic is more complex, I suggest using a plugin such as … Read more
You have to do it in a loop: $p = $post; while ( $p->post_parent ) { $p = get_post( $p->post_parent ); } $parent_page_link = get_permalink( $p->ID ); Another way is to use get_ancestors function: $ancestors = get_ancestors( $post->ID, ‘page’, ‘post_type’ ); $root = ( ! empty( $ancestors ) ) ? end($ancestors) : $post->ID; $parent_page_link = … Read more
You need to set the WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL in wp-config.php in a smarter way. Like this: <?php define(‘WP_HOME’, ‘http://’ . $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’]); // add the next line if you have a subdirectory install define(‘WP_SITEURL’, WP_HOME . ‘/path/to/wordpress’); This will solve your your issues with site URLs as they will be set dynamically on based on whatever … Read more
The functions you are using refer to the next or prev paginated set of posts, not a single post, hence the format they are in. Try using get_adjacent_post() instead. <?php $prev = get_adjacent_post(false, ”, true) $next = get_adjacent_post(false, ”, false) //use an if to check if anything was returned and if it has, display a … Read more
PHP stores this info in $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’].
There’s two problems here: previous_posts_link() echoes the link, rather than returning it. previous_posts_link() returns the full HTML of the link, including <a href=””> etc. The problem with #1 is that for you to be able pass the result of a function to another function (such as rtrim()) as an argument, that function needs to return … Read more
