redirecting directories with .htaccess

[pioneerx01]

Hi,

 

I have hit a communication proplem with my project and people involved. Long story short, wrong URLs got released. I need to find a way to change only one directory in URL, here is na example

 

A wrong URL would be:

www.mysite.com/state/event17_dev/register/school.php

 

I need it to be redirected to:

www.mysite.com/state/event17/register/school.php

 

So only the event17_dev needs to be changed to event17 while the othe directories and pages stay intact.

 

Thanks

I am going to answer my own question. In .htaccess file put:

 

redirect /state/event17_dev/ http://www.mysite.com/state/event17/
