Extract data from within an URL was created by cappu
Hi Luigi,

I need you help.

I have hundreds of From-URL like this:

/ihresuche..Bischafsheim%20(bei%20R%c3%bcsselheim)..php

I want to redirect to this
/tierspezialistensuche?searchstring=Bischafsheim%20(bei%20R%c3%bcsselheim)

Where "Bischafsheim%20(bei%20R%c3%bcsselheim)" could be any string with any length.
Ideal would be a a ltrim of "/ihresuche.." and a rtrim of "..php"

Thanks for any ideas

Kind regards,

Bernhard

Hi Bernhard,
assuming th ".." are real (if not this will not work), try this:
From URL: ^/ihresuche\.\.
To URL: {scheme}://{siteurl}/tierspezialistensuche?searchstring={preg_match 1}/\/ihresuche\.\.(.*)\.\.php$/i{/preg_match}
Request only: true (checked)

Kind regards,
Luigi

Hi Luigi,

it works! Thank you so much! - This is awesome. :cheer:

BTW: Did you consider to change the field "To URL *" to an textarea? - For larger Regex statements a textfield is hard to read.

Kind regards,

Bernhard

Yes,
is in my plans, but consider that using placeholders allow to have a very short "To URL", and this is why I postponed this change.

Kind regards,
Luigi
