[wp-hackers] some problem with understanding wp_rewrite

[Dagan Henderson]

Why not add the query vars via the GET/POST request itself? For example, http://example.com/post/hellow-world/something/?partner=1234.

That would make the partner ID accessible via $_REQUEST['partner'] without impacting the WP query.

thank you :) it looks like something what i need :)

and more question: what if i have some plugin which also use add_rewrite_endpoint to add for example endpoint 'something'?

urls like
example.com/post/hello-world/something/smth-from-plugin/partner/1234
and
example.com/post/hello-world/partner/1234/something/smth-from-plugin

still will work? both of them?
