* Hi John, please can I double check if this regex will redirect all page links
ending with *.html to the non html version? I have a bunch of old backlinks pointing
to *.html and would like to add a redirect on those so I don’t have to do so
individually. Thank you very much for your help.
* `\/(.*).html`
* The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fhtml-redirect%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
to see the link]_

* I can’t tell you if the expression will do what you want it to do, but you can
find more details about them here including some examples:
* [https://redirection.me/support/redirect-regular-expressions/](https://redirection.me/support/redirect-regular-expressions/)
* You can use the referenced regex checker, or you can just try it out and see
if it works.
* You don’t need to escape the `/`. You do need to escape the `.`
