Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the regex function in Rank Math. Based on your requirements, you want to match a URL and remove the last part that includes a hyphen followed by a variable number of characters before .html.
To achieve this, you can use the following regex pattern:
Regex Source URL:
/shop/(.*?)-[a-zA-Z0-9]+.html
Destination URL:
/produkt/$1
Explanation:
/shop/: This part matches the beginning of your URL.- *`(.?)
**: This captures everything after/shop/up to the last hyphen. The?` makes it non-greedy, so it stops at the first occurrence of the hyphen.
-[a-zA-Z0-9]+: This matches the hyphen followed by one or more alphanumeric characters (which can vary)..html: This matches the .html at the end of the URL.
Example:
For your example URL https://rankmath.com/kb/solving-redirection-issues-using-rank-math-seo/ this regex will capturehjulsaet-til-backappand redirect it to/produkt/hjulsaet-til-backapp`.
Make sure to select Regex as the matching type when setting this up in Rank Math. If you continue to experience issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.
Thank you for raising this concern!
