Issues with subdomains was created by webbus

Hi,

I have installed joomla in a subdomain.

I am trying to redirect from cat1 to cat2.

I have written the rule as follows

From URL: ^/parent-category/cat-(cat1)/
To URL: http://{siteurl}/parent-category/cat2/

But this is not working. I guess I am having issue with the macro {siteurl}

I tried adding the subdomain folder name in the plugin base path also.
I tried changing the "(" symbol with corresponding html code also. But it is not working.

Could you please help me in this.

Regards,
Kala Mohan.

Hi,
the trick is to insert your current subfolder in the plugin options (under advanced -> base path). In this way the ^ (starts with) will work and the rule will remain the same when you will move the site on the root (just drop the base path from the plugin settings).

Kind regards,
Luigi

Hi,
the issue is you didn't escape the parentheses ( and ). They are special chars so when you need literally you have to escape them.

Moreover, you missed the {pathltrim} macro in the destination to dynamically change the single URL.

Kind regards,
Luigi

P.S. For security reasons please disable or delete my temporary backend access.
