Add the custom parameters to the non-rewritten version (which is always available even when using url rewriting), which for the link details page is link.php?action=detail&id={LINKID}

I have just turned rewriting on and then regenerated everything. I have certain categories going to a custom details page which worked fine before turning rewriting on. Now I just get a 404 error. Those not going to the custom details page work fine.
That's because you're not typing a legal url. You need a file name before you can pass parameters to it, be it index.php or link.php, and then a ? before you add any URL parameters. Read the manual entry on custom templates: scripts.webmastersite.net/w..._Custom_Templates-153.html
so is using <a href="{LINKDETAILSURL}&custom=yes&TID=detailsdogs"> is wrong and I must enter the actual url?
But using link.php?action=detail&id={LINKID}&custom=yes&TID=detailsdogs doesn't rewrite though, so if that's right then there's not a lot of point in me using rewrite then for this.
It can't magically guess how you would want it to rewrite, of course. If you really want to rewrite custom urls then you can create a rule for it in your htaccess.

If I am using the URL rewrite, how do I link to a custom template and wrapper for details pages?

This is the url it gives after rewrite...

Fixed. You can also workaround it by putting custom=... first in the url meanwhile.

Just upgraded to 4.0.11 but it still doesn't work.
I tried putting the custom.. first but that doesn't work either - I end up with the url: www.thecanaandog.co.uk/cust...ils/velikayas_rehitsa.html
