You can use this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^.+?\d+-([^-]+)-(jobs)/?$ /$1$2 [L,NC,R=302]

  • i have added the following and it has not worked? and im not sure why it would work as it doesnt have a url to redirect to – Pure Jobs Inc. Nov 26 '14 at 21:53
  • i have a .htaccess ad a .htaccess.txt in the root the site is based on cms platform joomla 2.5, i placed the code at the bottom of .htaccess uploaded to the root still doesnt work? – Pure Jobs Inc. Nov 26 '14 at 21:58
  • Not bottom, it must be first rule just below `RewriteEngine` line. – anubhava Nov 26 '14 at 22:01
  • i have just tried that now im getting a 404 page not found? simply add the RewriteRule ^.+?\d+-([^-]+)-(jobs)/?$ /$1$2 [L,NC,R=302] is the correct? – Pure Jobs Inc. Nov 26 '14 at 22:04
  • its an internal 404 page error so it the page i created rather then a server side error – Pure Jobs Inc. Nov 27 '14 at 08:58
