Question

I had an wordpress site active for one year. Url was like example.com/dev. Now I am gonna move it to example.com. So I want if someone use /dev to get access to any pages I want him to redirect removing that string. if a previous URL was example.com/dev/country/canada now this URL should redirect to example.com/country/canada

You can use following rule in your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^dev/(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301]
