 * Hello,
 * I don’t really understand the filter function. Is there a documentation with 
   examples?
 * What are the custom fields for? To proof if the page has such a value for a custom
   field? Do I have to use them?
 * What I want to do is to have a filter for all kind of archives of posts or custom
   post types (also day archives like …/2014/06/03 and …/events/2014/06/03 ).
 * Thanks a lot

 * You can use a filter with the permalink [http://www.yourdomain.com/events/](http://www.yourdomain.com/events/)
   and check also affect children. Make sure you have fuzzy url matching enabled
   on the settings page. Then it will affect [http://www.yourdomain.com/events/2014/06/03](http://www.yourdomain.com/events/2014/06/03)
   and [http://www.yourdomain.com/events/2014/06/04](http://www.yourdomain.com/events/2014/06/04)
   and [http://www.yourdomain.com/events/2014/06/05/postname](http://www.yourdomain.com/events/2014/06/05/postname).
   It will affect any post that starts with [http://www.yourdomain.com/events/](http://www.yourdomain.com/events/).

 * May I ask you please best practice to use only one filter:
    [http://abc.com/?m=2013](http://abc.com/?m=2013)
   [http://abc.com/?m=201304](http://abc.com/?m=201304) [http://abc.com/?m=201305](http://abc.com/?m=201305)
   [http://abc.com/?m=201311](http://abc.com/?m=201311)
 * I have tried without success:
    – [http://abc.com/?m=](http://abc.com/?m=) (plugin
   filter setting) – check also affect children – fuzzy url matching enabled
 * Suggestion: “rewrite Nginx”
    – URL: [http://abc.com/?m=whatever](http://abc.com/?m=whatever)
   => transformed as [http://abc.com/p/?m=whatever](http://abc.com/p/?m=whatever)
   with Nginx => next, – [http://abc.com/p/](http://abc.com/p/) (plugin filter setting)–
   check also affect children – fuzzy url matching enabled
 * May I ask you please to suggest me a Nginx rule ?
    Thank you

 * You can’t have wildcard matching for the url arguments. It is one of the limitations.
   If you are rewriting the url to [http://abc.com/p/](http://abc.com/p/) then a
   filter on [http://abc.com/p/](http://abc.com/p/) should work. You would just 
   need to enable ignore url arguments.
