WordPress MU

Hi,

I've tried to explain what I want to achieve in a previous post (http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=4045), but apparently that one was too vague.

Anyway, I would like to be able to create links similar to this:

wordpressmu.test/tags/mytag

or

wordpressmu.test/sitewide/myparam

Can anyone help me out with this?

Um, what would these tags be used for? Something like sitewide tags maybe? There's a couple of solutions already posted here in the forums on how to do that.

If not, please explain as to what you;'re trying to do with these URLs.

drmike,

What I am trying to do is to understand how I can add new url parameters for my plugins to perform certain actions.

Currently I have been working on a sitewide tagging system (as a lot of people lately have been doing) which is almost finished and a plugin which allows for a sitewide category menu. Both were requested by my client and are also sponsored by my client and will be made open under a GPL license. However, I can't seem to find a reliable way to create links for my plugins without hacking core files, which I prefer not to do unless my changes are committed back into the core and keep updating an easy process.

Basically this is what I want:

domain.tld/queryparameter/queryvalue

more or less the same as:

domain.tld/index.php?queryparameter=queryvalue

This would trigger a certain callback in my plugin and the action will be processed.

Is this possible or does Wordpress MU need a patch for this to be possible? I belief that this kind of functionality would allow plugin developers to enhance WP (MU) in all sorts of way and I would like to work on this with some guidance from this community.

I'm curious as to what other people think of this.

Any word on the plugin? Cheers Callum.

Do a search (you must of since you found this thread) for 'sitewide tags' as it;s been discussed at great length.

Well, since the tag system from WP 2.3 just barely got into MU recently, I'd say the plugin they have is either now obsolete or will need a bit of a rewrite.

Or maybe soemone else has figured out the new system yet and has it sitewide.

Hadn't though of that and haven't had any feedback from our clients on the issue. Since it's rss based, I wouldn't think it would be an issue. I'll go ask though.
