What problem does it solve?

WordPress plugin authors often mishandle rewrite rules and flush calls, leading to 404s, poor performance, and confusing debugging scenarios. This guide clarifies when to register rewrites, how to flush, and how to structure endpoints to keep permalinks predictable.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Guidance on add_rewrite_rule, add_rewrite_endpoint, and query_vars for custom endpoints, CPTs, and taxonomies.
• Activation-time flushing pattern that ensures rewrites are in place before first requests.
• Clear best practices and common mistakes to avoid, with real-world WordPress plugin scenarios.

Quick Start

Register a new rewrite rule on init for a custom endpoint and flush rules only during plugin activation.
