Do many redirects slow my site

Hi and welcome back.
The rule is not so complex to build and you could first try with a 301 redirect, and when all work well change it to 200 (internal). But before this, we need to build the placeholder that allows you to get the "29" from the "aaaa". This is a table select so I need the table structure with some example rows. You can post here or send me an email at info(at)selfget.com.

Kind regards,
Luigi

Here is the rule:
From URL: ^/[^/]+$
To URL: http://{siteurl}/horses/${id}-${alias}
Request only: true (checked)
Placeholders:
alias={pathltrim /}
id={tableselect #__content,id,alias}${alias}{/tableselect}

Please, advise.

Kind regards,
Luigi

For some reason its not picking up the alias variable. The final url looks like this: www.equitag.com/horses/29-$alias instead of www.equitag.com/horses/29-aaaa.

I'm also getting a blank screen on all my other menu items.

We're getting closer.
Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi Peter.
Be sure to put ${alias} and not $alias as it seems from your message.

You are correct, I didn't have ${alias}.
However, its still not working as expected. it always redirects to my home page. The same thing happens with every menu item (everything goes to the home page).
Thanks for your patience. :)

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but don't we need to use some kind of pregmatch to get a four letter code from the "from URL". Otherwise, it would conflict with other urls on the site that are not four letter codes. I hope this makes sense.
