				Hello
we are using REDJ 1.72 community on J 3.1.5
We came across a very strange issue
step one: we create a menu item pointing to an article
example: 
www.mysite.it/supporto.html
-> it opens the correct article
step two: we create a redirect by REDJ
example: 
www.mysite.it/suppo
-> pointing to 
www.anothersite.it
it works correctly
but now, even 
www.mysite.it/supporto.html points to 
www.anothersite.it!
It looks like the shorter path "catches" the longest one. When the initial part is the same, you get the error.
I hope to be clear, try to reproduce it on a test Joomla installation if needed.
Thanks + regards
AO

				Additional info:
removing or unpublishing the redirect solves the problem, so the issue seems really related to some REDJ feature.
Thanks,

				Hi,
is not strange to me because a rule can match the whole URL or a part of it. And the rule can also be a regula expression. So to avoid your problem just add a dollar sign at the end of the rule (it means "end with") and the rule will stop to match the second URL.
Kind regards,
Luigi

				Hello, thanks for the explanation, problem is solved.
Did I miss something?
Was this feature reported somewhere? Sorry in this case.
