 * I have a page on my wordpress site [http://example.com/location/](http://example.com/location/)
   that has a bunch of default text. What I want to be able to do is make it so 
   that when a url like [http://example.com/location/california/](http://example.com/location/california/)
   is entered, it will insert “california” throughout the page. I have a big list
   of locations, and instead of creating a new wordpress page for each location,
   I simply want to be able to use the same page template and automatically insert
   the location name if a user requests it.
 * Is there a plugin that allows something like this?
 * I have successfully made this work outside of wordpress using .htaccess and a
   rewriterule:
 * .htaccess file:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine on
       RewriteRule ^location/(.*)/$ /location.php?location=$1
       ```
   
 * code for location.php:
 *     ```
       <?php $place = $_REQUEST["location"]; ?>
       <?php echo $place ?>
       ```
   
 * So the page the user sees always gets passed the part of the url after location/
   but to them it seems like it is a permanent page.
