Here is an example of the URL's we will be rewriting
From: https://bigscoots.com/2017/04/09/sample-post/
To: https://bigscoots.com/sample-post/
We will be using an Nginx location to perform the rewrite
location ~ "^/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/([a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+)/$" {
rewrite ^(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/ /$4/ permanent;
}
You will want to enter this in above your location / {
Example:
location ~ "^/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/([a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+)/$" {
rewrite ^(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/ /$4/ permanent;
}
location / {
# Wordpress Permalinks
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$uri&$args;
}
