Apache htaccess 301重定向到新文件名模式？

Question

I have come up with a snippet of code that might convert an existing filename pattern to a new one:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule (.*)-pi-(.*)\.html$ $1-p-$2 [NE,R]

Before I go messing around on the server, would offer some advice or a better solution?

I am hoping to redirect files looking for url containing "-pi-" to "-p-".

From - http: //www.p.com/great-product-pi-37.html To - http: //www.p.com/great-product-p-37.html

The product name (great-product) and product id (37) change for every product, but the format remains the same.

The -pi- reference used to be a pop-up window to a generated image. The image is now displayed on the same -p- screen, but search engines keep indexing and searching for the old -pi- image windows.

Thanks, in advance.

That should work with small tweaks, but you need to use a 301 redirect also. If you just use [R] without specifying 301 it defaults to 302 . You don't want temporary. You want permanent. I would put this above the other rewrites you might have.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.+)-pi-(.+)\.html$ /$1-p-$2.html [R=301,L]
