$_GET Getter Plugin for WordPress
Here is a new plugin for getting a query string variable into a wordpress post or page.
Where ever you want your “get” variable to appear just type .
So if your url is http://www.yoursite.com/apageorpost?thevariable=success, get the “success” by typing [get thevariable] where you want it in your content.
Simple as that!
You can pick the plugin up right Here

I can’t get it to work with more than one get variable. It will replace the first one it encounters in all instances, but it won’t find any others. Any ideas?

I fixed the plugin. It should work a lot better now and accommodates any number of [get vars]s sprinkled throughout. I used a regular expression and some array tools to find them all in one shot and then go through and replace them one by one. Here’s the new code:

We don’t have a way to do that out of the box. Our goal here was to allow support for GET strings.
We’ve done projects doing stuff like what you are talking about, but it basically amounts to hooking wordpress prior to it parsing the URL and handling it as you like.
