Can’t Redirect?

Do you need a regex? It doesn’t seem necessary and a plain redirect would match just as well

Hi John,

Like I said, I have tried all ways but I cannot get the url :

/botaniclab-drihttps:/www.google.com

To redirect to :

/botaniclab-drinks/

But it shows a 404 or a message saying to many redirect message

Are you able to offer an alternative solution to that I have already tried, please?

Many Thanks

Did you try making it a plain redirect? It works fine like that.

Hi John,

Indeed I have, several times.

When I go to a URL which has been flagged as 404 by a redirect, such as :

/botaniclab-drihttps:/www.google.com to : /botaniclab-drinks/

I have tried all ways to redirect it using the various paremetnerters such as :

^, .* and (.*) with and without using Regen.

Here’s another example trying various parameters :

/go/vitacoco-nutrition-drihttps:/www.google.com

Goes to

/vitacoco-nutrition-drihttps:/www.google.com

Producing a 404

The plain redirect will work, using a regex when one isn’t needed just complicates things. If it’s not working for you then the problem is something else. Can you create a plain redirect, show a screenshot of the settings, and include the full URL so it can be tested?

Hi John,

I had deactivated ALL plugins except ‘Redirection’.

Carried out a lot of testing using the various parameters provided in the plugin.

No matter what route/functons used, URL’s such such as :

/botaniclab-drihttps:/www.google.com

Which should redirect to : /botaniclab-drinks/

All still create either a 404 or ‘redirected you too many times’?

Very strange since all plugins have been deactivated?

Hi,

It appears that when ANY URL is hitting the site and flagged by Redirection as a 404, each is being appended with : https:/www.google.com

No matter what parameters employed of the plugin to redirect, each produce either a 404 or ‘redirected you too many times’?

I’ll keep at it ??
