删除文件名并使用mod_rewrite将正斜杠替换为破折号

Question

Im in the middle of moving my blog from a dynamic site to a static site. As a part of not breaking too many links I'm trying to learn mod_rewrite but getting no where with the following RewriteRule:

My old url

/blog/index.cfm/2012/10/9/My-blog-post

My new url

/blog/2012-10-09-My-blog-post.html

So far I have the following in my vhosts.conf file but its not working

RewriteRule ([a-zA-Z0-9.]+)(/blog/index.cfm/)([0-9]+)(/)([0-9]+)(/)([0-9]+)(/)([a-zA-Z0-9-]+) $1/blog/$3-$5-$7.html

Any help/pointers would be great

Answer 1

First, you only need to bracket (ie capture) things you will be using on the RHS of your rule. But the problem appears to be that you are only copying the year, month and day to the RHS, but not the My-blog-post . Try this:

RewriteRule ([a-zA-Z0-9.]+)/blog/index.cfm/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9-]+) $1/blog/$2-$3-$4-$5.html
