Ability for Dynamic Redirects Like CloudFlare Page Rules about oc-redirect-plugin HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @abass,

Thanks for the compliment! Glad you like the plugin as much as I do.

You can actually do this by creating a redirect as such:

Redirect Type: Placeholders
Source Path: /meet/{anything}
Target Path: https://app.prosperworks.com/public/meeting-sceduler/{anything}

Create a new Requirement set:
Placeholder: {anything}
Requirement: (.*)

Please let me know if this works for you.

Hey @adrenth - thank you so much, it almost works!

I have it mostly set up how I would like it, but I'm trying to figure out a way to make it work in this instance:

I have a different destination URL with /m/alex versus /m/alex/60.

Is there a way to have the general /m/alex{date} only respect when a date is added and ignore all others?

Because right now, m/alex{date} actually overrides the /m/alex/60{date} so it just takes /60/2019-10-12 and appends it at the end instead of letting the /m/alex/60/2019-10-12 trigger.

Not sure how much that makes sense, but essentially, if I disable either one of the top 2, the other one works perfectly. Just when they are both enabled, /m/alex{date} takes precedent and overwrites. Curious if there's any way to do some type of exact match while also using placeholders in some way.

EDIT: Recorded a quick video that should help better explain:

Hi @abass,

I think the part you are missing here is the power of regular expressions. Each placeholder can have additional regex conditions (Requirements) to match against.

You need to specify a Requirement-set for the {date} placeholder.

So you can use ^\d{4}\-(0[1-9]|1[012])\-(0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])$ to match a date.

Make sure you put the redirects in the correct order. You can prioritise the redirects by assigning an order number to it (see General tab).

I hope this will bring you further.
