custom urls for event search queries

[J Reddick]

I’ve used my own sql event calendar database for years before using event calendar pro. I have a couple hundred custom urls ‘out there’ as a result of mod_rewrite in our .htaccess file like:

Powwows-in-Oklahoma
California-Pow-Wows-and-Native-American-Events

that go to the results of query strings such as (on event cal pro): /events/?action=tribe_geosearch&tribe_paged=1&tribe_event_display=map&tribe-bar-geoloc-lat=36.778261&tribe-bar-geoloc-lng=-119.41793239999998&tribe-bar-geoloc=california&tribe_eventcategory=101

I don’t want to change any permalink structures – I just want to submit my custom urls to search engines as I have not that will point to such event calendar search results. We had a huge increase in our site visits when we implemented a few years ago and think there has to be a way to do this. I assume this needs to be included in the #wordpress area of the htaccess, but not having any luck with what seems to me should be a simple proposition. After all the ‘googling’ i’ve done about this, I must be wrong about the ‘simple’ part.

Hi David,

Thanks for reaching out! Interesting strategy to get cleaner URLs 🙂

This article gives a nice overview: Beginner’s Guide to Creating Redirects in WordPress. I don’t see any aspect of this that might be different you the URL’s generated by our plugin.

Please let me know if this answers your question,
Best,
Nico
