I have an issue with my redirects on my site and I'm hoping someone here will be able to help.

If you go to http://prothemedesign.com/mimbo-pro/ then WordPress redirects you to http://prothemedesign.com/themes/mimbo-pro/ this is great - but it is causing an issue with a new feature I am making on the site that uses custom rewrite rules.

Specifically - I have a rewrite-rule setup that looks like this: http://prothemedesign.com/demo/mimbo-pro/ and it redirects to http://prothemedesign.com/themes/mimbo-pro/ (note it's set up on my dev site)

I can't see anything in the theme that would be affecting the redirects like this so would be interested to know if anyone has any insight into how it's happening and how I can disable it?

ok - I got some more info. I realised that the redirect is happening in redirect_canonical so I need to work out a way to disable this when my custom rewrite rule is in action. – BinaryMoon Jan 30 at 22:05
ah ha - I solved it! :) I needed to change the regex on my custom rewrite rules to include - and then it worked. If someone could flag this as answered that'd be great. – BinaryMoon Jan 30 at 22:29
