Have to use the xset -fp and xset rehash command on login
I've just installed and set my font in urxvt to artwiz-lime which is a bitmap font. It seems to work fine, the only thing is, is that I have to issue the commands xset -fp /path/to/fonts/ and xset rehash every time I restart my computer. Is there a way of making it persistent?

Xorg conf file.

This isn't very descriptive. Why do I need to make x research each time? With other fonts I've installed, they've worked fine but now that I'm using a bitmap font, it seems to not work right.

Neither is your problem definition. No-one knows what font path you are trying to add (I seriously doubt it is actually `/path/to/fonts/`), nor where you have installed artwiz-lime, or how, or what bitmap settings you have in your fonts.conf.

It's called learning. Most Arch users seem to enjoy it.

I used pacman to install the artwiz-fonts package. They're in /usr/share/fonts/artwiz-fonts. In my .Xresources file I have URxvt*fonts: -artwiz-lime-medium-r-normal-*-20-*-75-75-m-*-iso8859-1
