301将文件路径的正则表达式重定向到上载目录

Question

I am moving a website to wordpress and the site has hundreds of files available for download. The current file path may have a number of subfolders before the name of the file. Below are some examples of how a url may look.

"http://www.example.com/uploads/folder/subfolder/anothersubfolder/file.pdf"

"http://www.example.com/uploads/folder/file.pdf"

  "http://www.example.com/uploads/folder/subfolder/anothersubfolder/anothersubfolder/file.doc"

I want to create a 301 redirect to handle any requests for these files and send them to the new url which would be

"http://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/folder/subfolder"

I'm keeping the sub-folders the same in the uploads folder, so really I need a regex for pointing anything that goes to

"http://www.example.com/uploads/"

and point it to

"http://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/"

Update

My current .htaccess file looks like

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I've tried adding the answer from anubhava within the <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> block but I think there is an issue with the RewriteBase / from wordpress and me trying to add RewriteBase /uploads/ . How can I have a rewrite condition for the /uploads directory?

Answer 1

You can use this redirect rule in DocumentRoot/.htaccess :

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^uploads(.*)$ /wp-content/uploads/$1 [L,NE,R=301]

RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>    
# END WordPress
