A little NGINX conf regex help

jollymon

So I am trying to regex out some single quotes ' from my site for some products categories and wanted to write a 1 liner for the change instead of several hundred that are baked into google, yet don't resolve.

And yes I fixed the code that was generating those slugs.

I have no idea what this person is talking about. Im looking for help with an nginx conf.

Give us an example of the singles quotes-- and we'll give you your one liner!

Although I'm guessing you're single quoted issue is more complex than this..here is an example to see what removing single quotes from your conf file might look like using sed:

$ cat example.conf |sed "s/\'//g"

So here is what I was trying #rewrite ^/(.*)$'(.*)$ /(.*)$ (.*)$;
in my nginx.conf. Im trying to regex out the ' character from my URI

I would think the rewrite line should look more like this (although untested):

rewrite ^/(.*)'(.*)$ /$1$2 last;

Actually tested this and it works for me:

rewrite ^/(.*)'(.*)$ /$1$2 redirect;
