2. Each rewrite rule consisst of a regular expression mapped to a single endpoint, usually index.php + a query string

4. public_query_vars can be filtered through 'query_vars' filter

6. The parse_request action is run on the WP class, also allowing the query_vars to be altered

7. Global WP_Query instance is created with the resulting query_vars array

9. To add new rewrite rules, you should send them to [email_address] attached in a plain text document format to avoid any copy paste issues, ie:

10. 'top-lists/([^/]+)(/[0-9]+)?/?$' => 'index.php?top-list=$matches[1]&page=$matches[2]',

13. Flush the rewrite rules locally by going to wp-admin -> settings -> permalinks and saving

14. Test

15. Repeat until all needed endpoints are correct

16. Increment the $rules_version so other installs are automatically flushed

17. Send the new rewrite rules to vip along with where they should be included in the list
