 * Simple solution, I’m just going to use the ID of page I know will always exists
   and be password protected also using get_the_password_form where required.

 * Yeah I get that too, I downgraded to an older version I had installed in a project
   from a number of months ago. Clearly the CSS for the login page logo is all wrong.

 * For now I’ve just added a bit of jQuery using the admin_footer hook seems to 
   do the job. It would be cool if this was made a setting, in the way you can add
   list items for a more fields list type it would be good to have an option to 
   default the date to the current date or not if the date wasn’t meant to be mandatory.

 * I’m basically trying to figure out if its possible to do it like this:
 *     ```
       $args =  array(
       	'meta_query' => array(
       			array(
       				'key' => 'event-date',
       				'value' => '2012-02',
       				'compare' => '>=',
       				'type' => 'DATETIME'
       			)
       	),
               'meta_key' => 'event-date',
       	'orderby' => 'meta_value',
       	'post_type' => 'events',
       	'posts_per_page' => 20,
       	'order' => 'ASC'
       );
       ```
   
 * Of course this bit wont work as effectively I’m comparing a string not a date:
 *     ```
       array(
          'key' => 'event-date',
          'value' => '2012-02',
          'compare' => '>=',
          'type' => 'DATETIME'
       )
       ```
   
 * I was wondering if the options for compare include something which will allow
   me to perform an action that works the same way as the SUBSTR method. I looked
   at the docs and as far as I can tell its doesnt support CONTAINS as that would
   work in the same way.

 * I have a page called whats-on and it has optional additional paratemers like 
   this:
    (A custom post type called events has been created)
 * 1. /whats-on/2012/02/03/event-name This scenriao I will grab a custom posty type
   item data based on the event name slug
    2. /whats-on/2012/02/03 All custom post
   type events are selected that match that day YYYY-mm-dd 3. /whats-on/2012/02 
   All custom post type events are selected that match that month YYYY-mm 4. /whats-
   on/2012 All custom post type events are selected that match that year YYYY
 * This pretty much exactly waht I am in the procss of doing, I know the SQL to 
   create but ideally I’d prefer to use get_posts or WP_Query

 * chadrew you are correct I’ve gotten confused about what I was trying to achieve,
   I’ve revisited the project and what I did. I had a workaround but I wanted a 
   clean way to do the following:
    Hide the posts ie. permalinks don’t exist they
   go to 404 but the posts still appear in the search.
 * The reasons for this is that this particular custom post type posts appear as
   a listing on an overview page therefore any search result for that post type 
   the link goes to the overview page (I customise the results page to achieve this)
   and not the post permalink.
 * Basically I wanted to achieve this without having to put a redirect on the single-
   mycustomposttype.php page that redirects to the overview page.

 * I was actually referring to the internal search
    What I wanted to do was create
   a custom post type in the normal way but exclude it from the internal search.
   If I changed the setting so it didn’t appear in the internal search then linking
   to the post gave me a 404. Is this possible and if so how? Please advise – thanks

 * update on this, with 3.2.1 its causes an issue which means the admin widget drag
   and drop doesnt work so ive stopped using it and just going with the default 
   date field.
 * it still really needs a proper date picker though

 * [15 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-feed_base-from-feed-url/#post-1510829)
 * been trying to figure out to do this.
 * also, when using a prefix to the feed for a post in safari if you leave out feed
   in the url it stays at that url but using firefox it appears to redirect to the
   url with feed in it. eg.
    [http://domain.com/post-1/rss](http://domain.com/post-1/rss)
   redirects to [http://domain.com/post-1/feed/rss](http://domain.com/post-1/feed/rss)
 * must be some way to rectify this and remove the feed part. rss must be reserved
   as if you create a page called rss using permalinks it appears as rss-2.
 * its all a bit confusing…i just want rid of the feed bit in the url
 * WordPress 3.0.1
