   I posted about this before, but didn't get anywhere (going on a month since). I cannot seem to be able to add to, modify or remove permalinks via the plugin API (specifically, WP_Rewrite).

   Here is an extreme example, for the purpose of illustration, which I've placed in my active theme's functions.php file (doesn't work as a plugin either):

   function customize_permalinks($rules)
{
return array();
}

   add_filter('rewrite_rules_array', 'customize_permalinks');


   That should remove all permalinks, correct? Well, it doesn't, a print_r() of $wp_rewrite->rules shows that they are all still there, and they all still work.

   What's wrong?

   Okay, I have also tried using both the Ultimate Tag Warrior and Feed Director plugins, and both do not work, the urls that is - trying to view the urls supported causes 404s.

   Regular clean permalinks (pages, posts, categories, etc) work fine, but not permalinks added through the plugin api. So I now know it's not just my attempt.

   Any ideas what's the deal here?
