[wp-hackers] Rewrite Rules

[Michael Van Winkle]

Hey Ryan, check out this page in the Codex.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Rewrite

WordPress has two key filters for this:
rewrite_rules_array (actually adds the rewrite rule)
query_vars (adds rewrite rule/variable to the wp_query object)

Cheers,

Mike
