使用.htaccess问题从网址中删除文件夹

Question

Hi So I am trying to remove includes/pages from a url that looks like http://localhost:8888/london/includes/pages/soho-london-guide/ For local dev. I am using MAMP and I've enabled mod_rewrite too.

So far I've been trying to use different techniques and here is a list of what I've been using (trying to make it work :((( )

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^includes/pages/(.*)$ $1 [L,QSA]

Also

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/includes/pages/(.+)$ /$1 [L,QSA]

Very very new to .htaccess and regex syntax so any help would be appreciated.

Have this rule in your site root .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/(?!includes/pages/)(.+)$ $1/includes/pages/$2 [L,NC]
