help with a wordpress rewrite

[TheWebHead]

I'm trying this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/wordpress/article([0-9]+)\.html
RewriteRule (.*) http://domain.com/wordpress/?p=$1 [L,R=301]

But instead of ?p=1234 I get ?p=article1234.html

Any help appreciated...

(.*) is $1
([0-9]+) is %1

You should not need a RewriteCond

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^wordpress/article([0-9]+)\.html$ /wordpress/?p=$1 [R=301,L]

Thanks. That worked.
