Regex redirect with wrong output ( ending)

Hi @hirschferkel

Please update to latest version v1.1.8 it should resolve your particular issue.

Tested on Chrome, Firefox and Safari:
– From: (.*)\/(aaa)\/(bbb)\/
– To: https://google.com/?term=$3

Let me know if it works for you now ??
Thank you!

Wow, you’re right, it seems it works! Great and thanks for the quick help.

Best

Hey @ , it’s great to hear that the solution works!
Feel free to open a new ticket if you have any other problems. And if you are happy with the plugin, please consider rating it! ??

Kind regards

@mixha @iclyde Sorry it does not work… but I cannot debug it at the moment, as I do not know what redirects does in the back.

Regex
.*\/(infografik-kategorien)\/(.*)\/(?!.*term).*

check all links in ?infografik-kategorien“ like?https://test.ixtract.de/infografik-kategorien/strategie/

but miss the ones with ?term” in the end like?https://test.ixtract.de/infografik-kategorien/strategie/?term=strategie

and covert them to?
https://test.ixtract.de/Infografik-kategorien/$2/?term=$2

e.g.?https://test.ixtract.de/infografik-kategorien/strategie/?term=strategie

You can see it here, how it should work:?https://regex101.com/r/rSKO7L/1

Actually redirect does nothing at the moment.
Any fix for this? best

Hi @hirschferkel

Try this one:
From: (.*)\/(test-url)\/(.*)
To: https://google.com/test-url/$2/?term=$2

I recommend you to always add (brackets) to .* match, it makes it more clean and easier to read, as in this case it should indeed behave the same as the Regex you provided.

Demo:

You can check it your self with the provided link. It does not work so far: https://test.ixtract.de/infografik-kategorien/strategie/

Hi @hirschferkel

Please try with below rules:

From: (.*)\/(infografik\-kategorien)\/(.*)
To:https://test.ixtract.de/Infografik-kategorien/$2/?term=$2

This does not meet the rule. URLs with “term” in the end have to be excluded

I guess you want me to use the backslash before “-kategorien”, right?

Did you mean something like that? Should work, bot does not:

https://regex101.com/r/L3RmdN/1

from (.*)\/(infografik\-kategorien)\/(.*)\/(?!.term)(.*)

To:https://test.ixtract.de/infografik-kategorien/$3/?term=$3

Hi @hirschferkel

Please inspect this expression: https://regex101.com/r/xVRqnH/1

My solution suggestion would be to use:
(.*)\/(infografik\-kategorien)\/(.*)(\/?|)(?!.term)(.*)

In any case I see that WP forums replaces some star characters to italic, so make sure you copied it from Regex101.

Let me know if these results are better ??
Thank you!

@iclyde: I copied your suggestion from your regex101 to Redirect plugin. You can test it yourself with the offered link: It does not work. Now there is the message, that there is an error in redirection …

Hi @hirschferkel

One of our testers found a bug that may be related to your issue, our other devs are already investigating the issue, will let you know once they find the cause and fix it.

Thank you for your patience.

Is there any help on it?

Or do I have to uninstall it, as it simply does not work like featured …

I use another plugin, which works correct, now.

Hi there

The issue was resolved two releases ago, not sure why nobody informed you about that in this topic.

My apologies for that.

Because it was not resolved …
