    Rewrite some Rewrites?

    Using 3.5.2, I want to rewrite a couple of rewritten URL's on my site. Specifically, I have a couple of sections on my site that I would like to rewrite with some simplified URL's.

    For example, I have a section in the CMS with a URL like:
    www.domain.com/2122-section-name/

    And I would like to rewrite that to:
    www.domain.com/section/

    I entered in the Custom Rewrite Rules in vbseocp:
    '2122-section-name/$' => 'section/'

    And although the links throughout my site are rewritten, the results are a page not found.

    Thoughts?

    This can't be done. You can, however, make a shortcut to it.

    ie, you can make a custom redirect like

    '^quiklink$' => '/2122-section-name/'

    which will make site.com/quicklink end up at site.com/2122-section-name/ for sharing purposes, etc.
