A challenging redirect was created by gyomtov
Hi there,

Great support forum, but I was not able to find a solution to my problem.

I have the enterprise version, which I bought to solve the following issue:

URL:
ringtones/country/jason-aldean/wheels-rollin-lyrics.html
Redirect to:
wheels-rollin-lyrics.html

URL:
ringtones/blues/allman-brothers-band/god-rest-his-soul-lyrics.html
Redirect to:
god-rest-his-soul-lyrics.html

and so on... ( I have thousands of links like that...)

The issue is that I need 3 "/" in order to perform the redirect.
For URLs like:
ringtones/country/jason-aldean.html - I don't want to make the redirect. (2 "/" only)

Can you help getting that done?

Thanks!
Guy.

Just a question before,
you need a rule for each URL or yuou would like to build a single rule that do all redirections?

We can probably follow the second solution, but I need to understand how to build a regular expression that matches ALL source pages (URL to redirect).

As example, lookin at posted URLs, I could intercept ALL URLs starting with /ringtones/, and followed by other two /, then redirect to the /final-part.html, but this rule wil match ANY /ringtones/something/something/final-part.html.

If this is what you need, then we can proceed ...
From URL: ^/ringtones/[^/]+/[^/]+/[^/]+\.html$
To URL: http://{siteurl}/{preg_match 1}/\/ringtones\/[^\/]+\/[^\/]+\/(.*)/{/preg_match}

Kind regards,
Luigi
