Combining flexible redirects and standard redirects

Hi all,

I have a website on Wordpress that I'm migrating to HubSpot. I'm only migrating a handful of high impact blog posts and will be redirecting the original URL to a new URL as the blog title will be changing. I would like to redirect the remaining posts to the blog listing page to prevent any broken links.

As an example, I will be keeping www.site.com/blog/post-one which I will redirect to www.site.com/new-blog/post-one using a standard redirect. For the remaining www.site.com/blog/post-two, www.site.com/new-blog/post-three, www.site.com/new-blog/post-four etc. I would like to use a flexible redirect like so:

Original URL: www.site.com/blog/*rest-of-url

Redirect to: www.site.com/new-blog

This format I got from the docs page on setting up flexible redirects.

My question is, can I set up a single redirect for one page and then a flexible redirect to catch the remaining pages? Or will the flexible redirect end up conflicting with the first redirect?

Yes @SBurnett28

You can set up a single redirect for one page and then a flexible redirect to catch the remaining pages.

The flexible redirect should not conflict with the first redirect as long as the URLs are correctly configured: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/domains-and-urls/set-up-a-flexible-pattern-url-redirect

Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.
