 * first off, sorry if this is answered somewhere, but trying to find things on 
   this forum is like pulling teeth without Novocaine.
 * I’m writing a plugin and want it to generate seo/sef friendly links if the person
   has this enabled (using the permalinks, not .htaccess since not all servers support
   htaccess)
 * I know that it will change index.php?p=1 into like index.php/madlibs/
 * but I want to add extra variables, so I need it to change something like
    index.
   php?p=1&puz=14 to index.php/madlibs/14/ or index.php/madlibs/<title of puzzle
   > (the latter of the 2 being preferable)
 * thank you in advance

 * You need to determine which functions are called by your template to generate
   permalinks. They will probably be defined on wp-includes/link-template.php. They
   all have filters which can be hooked where your code can add any parameters to
   the link you need.
 * You will of course need code to handle the parameters included in these links
   when requested, but I suppose that’s a different question.

 * I already know how to handle the passed parameters, and already have the hooks
   in place for that, but I can’t find any information about hooks to create the
   links with the extra parameters, only how to use the extra parameters once they
   are created (like if I create them manually)

 * I not confident there is any information other than studying the above mentioned
   source code. It should be apparent how to proceed just from that. You may get
   by with discarding the passed links and fully substituting your own, just ensuring
   it’s returned in the correct format.
