If anyone has any info to help me out that would be great.
I need to find the location where the post is grabbed by the contents of the url.
So for instance, you have an id, or a postname. It collects those from the permalink and finds the post unique to that info.
I need to create a new logic to grab the post by combining the category and a custom field.
The only thing I'm asking is the location where this process happens. Help?

You can use get_posts() function by supplying argument: array('category' => 1, 'meta_key' => 'your_key', 'meta_value' => 'your_key-value'). Replace the category, meta_key, and meta_value with your own values.

as a permalink? I think you misunderstood my question.
I'm trying to allow myself a new permalink structure without having the id, or postname in the permalink, and still have it work.
My structure:
http://www.site.com/futurama/1
futurama is the category.
1 is a custom field inside the wp_post's database table.
I can get away with this structure showing up, but it returns no post, unless of course I include an id, or a postname into the structure.
My conclusion is that there's somewhere that understands the permalink and looks for the id or postname to display a post for that permalink.
I want to go into that function and add a new one, that searches for category + custom field, and grabs the post based on the combination of these restrictions.
