htaccess规则在wordpress自己的规则之前

Question

I'm trying to add some rewrite rules to a Wordpress site, to go a little further than wp's own rewrite capabilities, but i am having trouble when I place those rules BEFORE wordpress own rules: if my rule rewrites to something that wordpress will rewrite later, it doesn't work. Eg:

www.domain.com/hello -> www.domain.com/image.jpg : this works, as wordpress doesn't interfere www.domain.com/hello -> www.domain.com/category/1 : doesn't work, even if www.domain.com/category/1 works by itself

I've tried to remove the L tag from my rewrite rules, to allow further rewriting, but it doesn't seem to work...maybe wordpress does starnge things with htaccess?

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Thank you

Answer 1

Wordpress doesn't check the rewritten url ( /category/1 ), but parses the original request url ( /hello ), and so it doesn't know what to do with /hello . To fix this use the proxy flag. So [L] would become [L,P]
