I have been studying your instructions for days but I think I must be mentally incapable when it comes to understanding how to write the redirect code. I also searched your forum to see if I could similar questions to mine to help me understand.

Unfortunately I cannot do proper testing just yet as we haven’t changed to the new website but I want to be ready for when we do change.

I think I found the solution in your forum for the first redirect I need. Please let me know if I have it correctly. Below XYZ is the ID number of the article and I'm not sure if I have the forward slash on the end of the 'From' url correct.

From: http://oldsite/XYZ-the-article-title/
To: newsite.com/news/XYZ-the-article-title

From URL: ^/[0-9]+-[^/]+$
To URL: {scheme}://{siteurl}/eventdetail/{path}
Request only: true (checked)

The 2nd redirect I need which I don't have a clue how to write is this:

From: oldsite.com/event/article-title/?instance_id=XYZ
To: newsite.com/eventdetail/XYZ/article-title

Thanks so much for your help

Hi Mel,
assuming ReDJ is installed on the old site /which receives the requests):
From URL: ^/[0-9]+-[^/]+$
To URL: {scheme}://newsite.com/news{path}
Request only: true (checked)

The rule preserves the same request scheme, but you need to put the real new domain in the target.

For the second redirect:
From URL: ^/event/[^/]+/\?instance_id=
To URL: {scheme}://newsite.com/eventdetail/{queryvar instance_id}/{pathltrim event}
Request only: true (checked)

Kind regards,
Luigi
