Easily add custom rewrite rules to your WordPress blog.

== Description ==

WordPress uses rewrites to allow <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Introduction_to_Blogging#Pretty_Permalinks">pretty permalinks</a>. Simple Rewrite Rules plugin allows you to customize the URL of your WordPress blog even further.

= How to use rewrites =

If you aren't already familiar with Apache's <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html">mod_rewrite</a>, it is recommended that you have a look at it.

This plugin can parse <a href="http://www.regular-expressions.info/">regular expression</a> to rewrite one URL to another. The best way to understand this is through an example:


Rewrite `random-posts` to `index.php?orderby=rand` (Random posts)<br>
Rewrite `(cats)|(dogs)` to `index.php?categoryname=$match[1]` (All posts under a certain category)<br>
Rewrite `([^/]+)/popular/?` to `index.php?month=$match[1]&meta_key=votes&orderby=meta_value` (The most popular posts in the month)<br>
Rewrite `user/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?(/(.*))` to `index.php?authorname=$match[1]&day=$match[2]&categoryname=$match[4]` (The possibilities are endless!)<br>
