    Hi,

    I have a WordPress site and my permalinks are currently set to the date + name. I would like to change this to the post name only. I already know that I must redirect all the links on my site because of this change and I have implemented the following Regex redirection:

    Source URLs: /([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{2})/(.+)
    Type: Regex
    Destination URL: https://mydomain.com/$3

    Indeed all my urls end up being redirected but not in an ideal way, because it makes a double redirection before reaching its final destination. Any solution for this?

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    since your dates contain the month, year and date, please use the following as the source:

    
 /([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/(.+)

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hello Michael,

    Thank you for responding so quickly.
    I tried the Regex you gave me before and now I ended up with a 404. In the area of sensitive data you have more information about it.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello,

    Please try this:
    Source: \d{4}/\d{2}/\d{2}/(.*)
    Type: Regex
    Target: $1/$2
    Ignore Case: Enabled

    Here is a screenshot for reference:

    We just tested it and it is working, 100%.

    Hope that helps.
