If I have:
redirect 301 /users/foo http://www.example.com/profiles/foo
redirect 301 /users/bar http://www.example.com/profiles/bar
Can I do something like?
redirect 301 ^\/users/(.+)$ http://www.example.com/profiles/$1
Edit
Found a solution:
RedirectMatch users/(.+) http://www.exapmles.com/profiles/$1 [R=301,L]
This actually redirects instead of rewriting.

See @Darth Android's solution with RewriteEngine
which works just as well :)
I actually wanted to redirect, not just rewrite. Appreciate the help though :) – macek – 2010-06-21T19:52:42.247
@macek I haven't tested it personally, but I'm under the impression that will redirect with a 301 code. I'll play around with it a bit. The
[R=301,L]
means to stop processing rewrite rules and issue a 301 redirect. – Darth Android – 2010-06-21T19:54:40.390ah, I didn't know you could use
[R=301,L]
at then end of aRewriteRule
. Thanks for this :) – macek – 2010-06-21T19:55:55.427@macek I didn't either until about 30 seconds ago. This is why I come to this website to be entirely honest. Thanks for increasing my knowledge! :P – Darth Android – 2010-06-21T19:58:56.747
I believe the first
/
on theRewriteRule
needs to be removed for this to work as desired. (I had to remove it for it to work on my system.) With the first/
removed, we're left with:RewriteRule ^users/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/profiles/$1 [R=301,L]

From time to time my Magento is changing URL which today is something_909.html then few days later it is no more something_909.html but something_911.html How can I do it with regex? – Rob D.
