Rediretor Help

When I enable this, it redirects to piokok.com/profile/profile/wildcard. I'm not sure how the second profile is added and thus how to prevent it.

I'm unclear where you're redirecting from. If you're looking to redirect from Instagram profile pages to Piokok profile pages, then you'd want something like:

Example URL: https://www.instagram.com/linustorvalds

Include Pattern: https://www.instagram.com/*

Redirect to: https://www.piokok.com/profile$1

Choose Wildcard

Description: Redirect instagram profiles to Piokok profiles

Edit: for some reason I can't seem to remove the trailing / from www.instagram.com* You don't want the last backslash in that line. Nothing inbetween com*.
- Thank you so much. It was actually redirecting from piokok as LibRedirect was already redirecting from Instagram, but got it sorted with the RegEx.
Try putting the type to RegEx and use this pattern: https:\/\/piokok\.com\/(?!profile\/)(.*)
- Perfect, thank you!
I see the problem: [anything] after the website domain is redirected to profile/[anything]. Imagine running that redirect repeatedly. It will keep on adding "profile" to the beginning. To stop it, you have to make sure the URL after the domain doesn't start with "profile", otherwise you're in danger of a loop.
- I've got https://www.piokok.com/profile/* in the excluded patterns, but it's not observing it.
