I know there are other questions, but none of them have answers that work for this.
I have a page on my WordPress site with the slug profile
, and I have it set up to take a ?username=
URL parameter. However, this is ugly, and I would like to be able to go to http://website.com/profile/andy
instead of http://website.com/profile/?username=andy
. Is there something I can put in my functions.php
to do this? I currently have:
add_filter('query_vars', 'parameter_queryvars');
function parameter_queryvars($qvars) {
$qvars[] = 'id';
$qvars[] = 'username';
$qvars[] = 'profileredirect';
$qvars[] = 'reason';
return $qvars;
}
This prevents WordPress from stripping id
, username
, profileredirect
, or reason
from the URL. Once rewritten, I would still need to be able to use http://website.com/profile/?profileredirect=true&reason=andy
. I could live without id
, it's not referenced anywhere and is only there because I haven't removed it.
Thanks!
