    Hi. Thanks for your plugin. It is perfect and I have no problems with it.

    However, I need your help. I want to change direct links in wordpress. Specifically, it’s about TAGS.

    At the moment the tag link looks like this:

    mysite/tag/xxx

    I need to change to

    mysite/topic/xxx

    As you can see, only the “tag” change to “topic” and nothing else. I searched a lot in your documentation but couldn’t find anything. I have a thousand tags and it will be a big problem for me to add these redirects manually.

    Thank you and all the best.

    Hello,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us.

    In such a case you can use Regex redirection as shown below:

    Source:/tag/(*)
 Target: https://yoursite/topic/$1

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    Hello,

    Thank you for the follow-up.

    Could you please confirm if the URLs mysite/topic/xxx are already existing? If so, please try this format

    
Source URL: /tag/(.*)
Regex
Destination: /topic/$1

    I hope that helps. Thank you, and looking forward to your update.
