Instead of the standard /tags/oranges/ type structure, we've been using something along the lines of /s/37/tags/oranges/ which allowed us to split the site into multiple sections. (for example, the above might show different posts than say /s/25/tags/oranges/) The code we were using seemed to be working fine up until WordPress 3.0. I have included it below. It is an adapted form of the example found near the bottom of this page of Ryan Boren's Feed Director plugin: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Rewrite The code we've been using: {{{ add_action('generate_rewrite_rules', 'sectioncats_add_rewrite_rules'); function sectioncats_add_rewrite_rules( $wp_rewrite ) { $new_rules = array( '[Ss]/([0-9]+)/tags/([^/]+)/?$' => 'index.php?' . 'tag=' . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(2) . '§ion_id=' . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(1), '[Ss]/([0-9]+)/tags/([^/]+)/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$' => 'index.php?' . 'tag=' . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(2) . '&paged=' . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(3) . '§ion_id=' . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(1), ); $wp_rewrite->rules = $new_rules + $wp_rewrite->rules; } }}} As of WordPress 3, this no longer works. Well... it sorta works in that it keeps the proper section but redirects the browser to /tags/oranges/ (ie back to the default WP structure) So, my question is, What's the *right* way to do this? I've tried switching to use simple add_rewrite_rule commands, but those don't yield any better results. Thanks in advance for any help. James W.
