Redirection problem

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Rank Math with your query about redirecting URLs using Regex in Rank Math. Based on the screenshots you’ve provided and the URLs you’re trying to redirect, it seems like the issue might be with the way the Regex pattern is set up.

The pattern you’ve used, news-and-media/blog/2022/11/29/(.*), should technically capture the URLs you’ve listed, but it’s specific to the date 2022/11/29. To make it more general and applicable to all dates, you should modify the pattern to

news-and-media/blog/([0-9]{4}/[0-9]{2}/[0-9]{2})/(.*)

This pattern will match any date in the format of news-and-media/blog/year/month/day.

Also, ensure that the ‘Exact’ and ‘Regex’ options are appropriately set in the redirect settings. If it’s set to ‘Exact’, the redirect will only occur if the URL matches exactly, which is not what you want in this case. You should use the ‘Regex’ option for these types of dynamic URLs.

If you’re still facing issues, please provide additional details about how you’ve set up the redirect, and we’ll be happy to assist further.

Best regards,

Hello,

Please try to set the destination URL as the following:

https://www.salesupply.nl/$2/

Once done, please head over to your WordPress dashboard > Settings > Permalinks, and hit the “Save Changes” button (without making any changes) to clear the permalink cache and see if that works for you.

If the issue still persists, then we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.

It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.

Hello,

We’ve checked your website and found that the issue was occurring because of the Really Simple SSL plugin you’re using on your website. However, we’ve added the following filter on your Code Snippet plugin and now the redirections are working properly without any issue.

add_action( 'wp', function () {
    global $wp;
    if ( ! empty( $wp->query_vars['do_not_redirect'] ) ) {
	if ( class_exists( 'RankMath\Helper' ) ) {
	    $rank_math_modules = RankMath\Helper::get_module( 'redirections' );
            add_action( 'template_redirect', array( $rank_math_modules, 'do_redirection' ), 11 );
	}
    }
}, 2 );

Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
 
Thank you.
