Custom url rewrite in wildcard zone
Hi. I want to build several rss feeds for my site including pods, and i want to place them in right urls, but preferred places are inside wildcard zones (for example - discogs/* stands for individual releases, and logical url for discogs feed would be something like discogs/rss2feed). I haven't set up $wp_rewrite yet (it fails to redirect even from blog/rss2feed to some theme file, and i don't know why), but if i'll specify new rules - can they override pods wildcards and how bad this override will be (if it will be)?

You can add new Pod Pages ontop of wildcards and they will be used instead.
For example, a Pod Page URI of "discogs/*" will not be used if there is a Pod Page URI of "discogs/rss2feed".
If you plan on co-habitating your wildcard Pod Pages with other non-Pods URLs, it may be easier to assign a new Pod Page (like above) to avoid running your Pod-related code.
Just if somebody will have the same issue: $wp_rewrite has started working in all of a sudden (i thought that may be pods rules are conflicting somehow) and it overrides pods rules successfully for now. If something goes wrong, i think i'll just do as Scott told.
