My permalink structure is set so I have url.com/page
I made a basic PHP script prior to installing wordpress that uses $_POST data to display the correct set of information, so the base would look like url.com/work.php?featured=print
After adding this to my WordPress installation with the rewrite from the permalink structure above, the link actually works as:
url.com/work/?featured=print
I’m having trouble getting the extra rewrite to work so that a clean url.com/work/print will work properly.
This is what my .htaccess file looks like, I appended the last line before the end IfModule tag hoping that would take anything work/[page]/ and direct it to work/?featured=[page]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php
RewriteRule ^work/([^/.]+)/?$ work/?featured=$1 [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
any help?
EDIT
Discovered rewrite via the functions page and found this quite resourceful
however, my rule is taking .com/work/print (work/?feat=print) and simply showing it as .com/work without the page data being passed through
'work/([^/]+)/?$' => 'work&feat=$matches[1]'
The above is the only thing I changed from post I just referenced. I tried keeping is specific to get it to work first to avoid any loose ends…
Still not working properly though

For some reason, couldn’t get anything to work, but ^ is quite simple and worked great
