I'm working with a WordPress Multisite setup where one of the subsites is located in a subdirectory named /en/. I've encountered an issue where URLs that include a duplicate subdirectory path, specifically /en/en/, need to be redirected to just /en/.
For example, I want https://example.com/en/en/some-page/ to redirect to https://example.com/en/some-page/.
I attempted to set up this redirection using YoastSEO, which allows for RegEx-based redirects. However, my current setup does not seem to work as expected. Here's what I've tried:
- RegEx pattern: ^en/en/(.+)
- Destination URL: /en/$1
Despite this setup, the redirection fails and URLs with the duplicate /en/en/ path are not redirected properly.
Is there anything wrong with my RegEx pattern?
(en\/){2,}and replacing with$1. See regex101.com/r/VJsqG4/latest. I think your issue is, that^anchors your expression to the start of string, whileen/is in fact in the middle of the URL
