php – add_rewrite_rule not working with custom post type
I am trying to follow the examples in the wordpress documentation about add_rewrite_rule and add_rewrite_tag.
I’m using a custom post type called “panel“.
so the pages look like “site.com/panel/post-slug“
url queries work: for example I have 2:
var1 and testquery.
if I go to “/panel/test-page-auto/?var1=10“
And with var1 and testquery:
so what i want is, change the /panel/test-page-auto/?var1=10&testquery=Hi
-> /panel/test-page-auto/10/Hello
my code:
add_action('init', '__rewrite_tag_rule', 10, 0);
function __rewrite_tag_rule() {
/**
* test page tag rute
*/
$page_type = "^panel/";
add_rewrite_tag('%testquery%', '([^&]+)');
add_rewrite_tag('%var1%', '([^&]+)');
//Add rule
//panel/test-page-auto/10/edit
add_rewrite_rule(
$page_type."test-page-auto/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?",
'index.php?pagename=test-page-auto&var1=$matches[1]&testquery=$matches[2]',
'top' );
//add rule for show
//panel/test-page-auto/10
add_rewrite_rule(
$page_type."test-page-auto/([^/]*)/?",
'index.php?pagename=test-page-auto&var1=$matches[1]&testquery=100edit',
'top' );
}
add
_filter(‘query_vars’, function($vars) {
$vars[] = “testquery”;
$vars[] = “var1”;
return $vars;
});
But it’s not working.
when I try to put /panel/test-page-auto/10/Hi it just redirects me to /panel/test-page-auto and the queries are blank.
Can someone help me understand what I’m doing wrong?
I have already tried:
- save permalinks after each change.
- edit the rules in various ways.
- test the links using the queries and they are working.
