				Hi,
Having some trouble with doing an exact match redirect.
I want to redirect domain.com/boards or domain.com/boards/ to:
domain.com/boards-and-paddles/boards
Been trying different ways but haven't found a good way to exactly match /boards and /boards/ without also interfering with the To URL.

				Try this:
From URL: ^/boards/?$
To URL: http://{siteurl}/boards-and-paddles/boards
Request only: true (checked)
Kind regards,
Luigi

				Hi Luigi,
Thanks for the quick reply. I made this change and neither works, I get a 404 error (this is a new site where /boards no longer exists).

				Probably you need to add an option at the end of your .htaccess file:

				Hmm, maybe you are on to something. It's odd that I don't get the regular Joomla 404 error page, it looks more like a generic 404 error.
I added that line with no change.
Any advice? I'm on Joomla 3.0.3.

				I cannot tell you cause you used a generic domain.com.
Just send me an email at info(at)selfget.com with your domain and the hosting provider.
Kind regards,
Luigi
