Want a simple htaccess to redirect html root filename to a sub-directory.

www.xyz.com/About****.php where **** is arbitrary. The words "About" and ".php" are fixed

convert to www.xyz.com/coach/articles/About****.php

Haven't used regular expressions and htaccess for many years. Relearning curve is time consuming.

CodePudding user response：

This will redirect every URL that matches About****.php to coach/articles/About****.php

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^About(.*).php$ coach/articles/About$1.php [L,R=301]

CodePudding user response：

I wasn't clear. the **** are arbitrary characters, as in About_xyz.php" and About_Jack_jumped.php and About XYZ.php With a space character. \
