$wp_rewrite and WordPress 2.0

Posted in wordpress by Mark Jaquith on December 21st, 2005

When I upgraded to WordPress 2.0, I had an issue with $wp_rewrite related to a plugin. The plugin was using the plugins_loaded hook and then trying to access the $wp_rewrite object. One of the changes in 2.0 was to move the instantiation of the $wp_rewrite object to after the plugins_loaded hook. I fixed the problem by editing the plugin to use the init hook instead.

So just as a “heads up” to plugin authors: you might want to consider using the init hook from now on, as it happens a little later in the game, and it’s more likely that the thing you need will be available.

Also, once WordPress 2.0 is officially released, I will be updating the WP Hooks site to reflect the new hooks, and their new contexts.

    Hi! I have a question about the plugin to search for links outside the domain of the blog. I am new to this, and setting up using WP 1.5. I know WP2.0 will be available Dec 26. Since you seem deeply involved in this, will the new version include your plugin,? Will it be able to link to outside webpages? I couldn’t believe that such a seemingly basic idea wasn’t built in to version 1.5, and spent hours tracking down the problem until I saw your post. If the new version won’t have this, I need to download and install it. Is the exact filename The beginning and ending are a bit confusing to me. By the way, I would like to make a donation, but PayPal doesn’t work for me (long story). Is there some other way? Thanks, Mike Murdock

    If you’re talking about the Identify External Links plugin, then yes, it seems to work fine with WordPress 2.0, so the old version should do. As for donations, you could hit up my Amazon wishlist. ;-)
