[wp-hackers] Possible bug with endpoints

[Seamus Leahy]

I originally designed my plugin in to do as your first suggestion of
directly parsing the URL and after all of this came to the same idea as your
second suggestion. I have been attempting more and more to have my plugins
utilize the WordPress API; but realistically, that will never 100% possible.

Thanks for the help Jennifer.
