I’m working right now on Static Pages plugin (and y’know what? It’s working!) but I want to include working mod_rewrite for them, so with active MultiViews I will be able to type domain.com/page/about/ for example.

But – I have no idea where to look for any functions, options or anything that might help me in discovering “how the heck to make this?” Any advices?

I’ve created something like this:

function page_link( $page_number ) {

echo apply_filters('page_link', get_page_link( $page_number ) );

}



function get_page_link( $page_number ) {

$rewrite = bb_get_option( 'mod_rewrite' );

if ( $rewrite ) {

global $bbdb, $bb, $page;

$page = $page_number;



if ( $rewrite === 'slugs' ) {

$table_name = $bbdb->prefix . "pages";

$query = $bbdb->get_results("SELECT page_slug FROM $table_name WHERE page_id=".$page."");



foreach ($query as $rk) {

$column = $rk->page_slug;

}

} else {

$table_name = $bbdb->prefix . "pages";

$query = $bbdb->get_results("SELECT page_id FROM $table_name WHERE page_id=".$page."");



foreach ($query as $rk) {

$column = $rk->page_id;

}

}

$link = bb_get_option( 'uri' ) . "page/" . $column;

} else {

$args = array();

$link = bb_get_option( 'uri' ) . 'page.php';

$args['page_id+id'] = $page;

$args['part'] = 1 < $part ? $part : false;

$link = add_query_arg( $args, $link );

}



return apply_filters( 'get_page_link', $link, $page_number );

}

Trust me, I don’t know what this is either . I’m working on this for a couple of hours (in total) and I’ve messed up. Could someone help me in this by explaining how this thing should look like?

I mean – the above code is allowing me to type

<?php echo page_link("1"); ?>

and this will display url to static page with id=1, creating something like domain.com/page/1 or domain.com/page/about – so links are working. But now I want to send page ID to other functions that are selecting and displaying date from database – and I have no idea how to send this id in ‘rewrited’ version. Can anyone help?
