    Is there a way to set case insensitive redirects?

    I’ve inherited an old site with no standards so I have images\Gh1.jpg and images\gH2.jpg etc. which I’ve moved it to WP and I’d like to catch them in one redirect rule.

    The only option currently is to use a regular expression to match the different cases.

    Thanks John,

    When you say currently does that suggest it might be an option in the (near) future?

    Yes, it is planned for the future. I can’t say when, and probably not the ‘near future’, but it will be added.

    Many thanks it’s a great plugin regardless.

    If I wanted to add something to deal with this directly to my .htaccess file any advice on how to advoid redirection chains – I fully understand if this is an over the top question for here.

    To avoid redirect chains you need to avoid making a chain! There’s nothing much else that can be said about it really, and I would say its harder to create one than not create one. You can always check your redirects to see if you have them chained up.
