Since “/treattrain” is in the URL of your desired location, the regex will always find “/treattrain” somewhere. Make sure it is at the beginning of the string to be replaced with something like the ^ token.

You could have another capture group to collect the text before our bad string:
^(.*)(number>;crid=1833;check_container=true)$

So now we have two capture groups, which the plugin treats as “$1” and “$2”, and can set the target URL as: $1.

You could use a negative lookahead (look under “Group Constructs here). I don’t know if this is the best way, but:
^\/((?!wp-admin).)*$
will match:

/example.com
/example.com/
/example.com/my-page
/example.com/my-page?id=1

and fail to match:
/example.com/wp-admin/
This assumes that “wp-admin” is at the beginning of the URLs you want leave un-redirected.

@mdotk

* Quantifier — Matches between zero and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed (greedy)

So /directory/ will always match your pattern of \/directory\/.* (remember to escape special characters) and loop.

If you want all characters after /directory/ removed, then you could do something like \/directory\/\S.* or \/directory\/\S+. Try it in regex101, and hover over each part to see what they would accomplish.

You can also get more information about what is happening during a redirect loop with this tool: https://redirectcheck.com/index.php

I would attempt contact through https://thunderguy.com/semicolon/wordpress/, but the contact form gives a 405 error.

In “[object Object]”, the brackets will have to be escaped as “\[object Object\]”
All the characters in your “number” url should be safe, though.
Use this tool to test various regex matches:

Yes, this is resolved. Thanks for the help!

– I didn’t disable everything, but disabling plugins recently changed, or that seemed like likely culprits (W3TC, Plugin Organizer) didn’t seem to fix anything.
– Exclusions resulted in the excluded CSS loading correctly, as expected.
– The problem still existed after reverting to 2.2.2, so I was wrong to associate this with an update.

But maybe only somewhat wrong, as I was able to resolve the issue by removing the temporary add_filter('autoptimize_filter_speedupper', '__return_false'); fix from my functions.php.

I though this was a fluke, but I am able to recreate/resolve the issue just by adding/removing that filter, uploading, and refreshing the page.

Any idea why? Does that make any sense?

I’ve now purged both and verified by checking the cache folders themselves.

I’ve now turned off caching on that page entirely (and there is no old cached version being served), but I had to remove the my_ao_noptimize filter call from my functions.php to get the ao_noptimize querystring to work.

Thanks for the fix.

Sorry, it seemed like 404 records were being deleted on creation of a redirect on the Redirects page, but I can’t seem to replicate it.

One thing I’m not imagining, though, is that I can no longer sort columns.

Then I guess my issue is that I can’t have a different template for when there is no [link].

I ended up putting an if in get_single_image_credits()

		if ($link == '') { 
			$template = '[source]';
		} else {
			$template = IMAGE_CREDITS_TEMPLATE;
		}

I’m not sure that == '' is the best test to use here, but so far it does what I want.

Your regex will always find and replace foo-(.*) in bar/foo-$1, because it is there.

What you are doing in the htaccess can be also done in the plugin. Try preceding your regex with a “beginning of string” token: ^, since after the first redirect bar/ will be at the start of the string.

But, again, the log wasn’t even being created (due to the errors in the post above) until I explicitly defined the log path.
