.htaccess redirectMatch除了基本

Question

I have this redirect working beautifully:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/stories/(.*)$ /$1

What I need to happen is happening; all sub-pages of /stories/ (eg: example.com/stories/my-story/ redirects to example.com/my-story/). Great.

Now, I need the base url of example.com/story/ to redirect to example.com/blog/ I've tried the following before and after the redirectMatch:

Redirect 301 /stories/ http://dev.explorersedge.ca/blog/

No go. Any ideas?

Thanks, Jason

Place the following redirect, acting on exact /stories/ or /stories URLs (not required presence of the / is defined by ? in regexp),

RedirectMacth 301 ^/stories/?$ http://dev.explorersedge.ca/blog/

above your existing RedirectMatch , or below it, but modify, in that case, existing to

RedirectMatch 301 ^/stories/(.+)$ /$1

so, that it will work only for /stories/ with at least one symbol after it (otherwise .* matches 0 or any number of symbols).
