    .htaccess redirect, wildcard

    Is there a wildcard that i can use if i want to redirect all urls containing /somedir/blabla/694 ?

    example
    Redirect 301 /somedir/blabla/694-some-link http://www.website.com/blabla/some-link
    Redirect 301 /somedir2/blabla/694-some-other-link http://www.website.com/blabla/some-other-link
    Redirect 301 /somedir3/blabla/694-some-third-link http://www.website.com/blabla/some-third-link

    Basicly i want to remove "/somedirX" and "694-" from the urls. Is this possible to do this with 1 line of code or do i need 1 line for each url redirect?

    Thank you

      You can use regular expressions with redirects, so something like this - although I'm sure the syntax is not exactly correct, hopefully you get the idea:

      Redirect 301 /somedir[0-9]*/694-(.*) http://www.website.com/blabla/$2

      [0-9]* says to match any number between 0 and 9, zero or more times
      (.*) matches any character, zero or more times
      $2 will copy the contents matched by (.*) and preserve them

      These links may be of some help:
