 * Hi John,
 * I want to redirect mydomain.com/geburtsort/Daenemark/ to mydomain.com/geburtsort/
   daenemark/
 * First I tried using \L$1 until I found out, that your plugin can’t handle it.
   
   This was my rule, which worked in [https://regex101.com/](https://regex101.com/):
   geburtsort/(.*) -> geburtsort/\L$1/
 * Then I tried the shortcode, but unfortunately it doesn’t work, too:
   ^geburtsort/(.*)-
   > /geburtsort/[lower]$1[/lower]/
 * The redirection doesn’t work, I’m only getting the old URL.
 * Could you tell me, please, what I’m doing wrong?
 * Thanks in advance!
   Andreas

 * I’ve solved the problem myself. I used regex option before. After disabling it,
   the redirection works 🙂

 * Sorry, but the problem isn’t solved. For test purposes I used “static” values(
   Daenemark -> daenemark), and it works. But when I use wildcards in combination
   with regex, it doesn’t work 🙁
