  (Asked by: username_0 on 2019-11-04)
  
  I'm building out a new site and have moved all the existing client asset upload directories into one parent directory.
  
  old site:
  
  **/hero/**
  
  **/books/**
  
  **/slider/**
  
  new site:
  
  **/uploads/hero/**
  
  **/uploads/books/**
  
  **/uploads/slider/**
  
  When adding a redirect in retour how can I set up a regex to catch all images/files in the various directories and point them at the new structure.

  Unless absolutely everything has been moved to `/uploads/` (which is unlikely), the easiest way to do it is with 3 regex's:
  
  `/hero/(.*)` -> `/uploads/hero/$1`
  
  `/books/(.*)` -> `/uploads/books/$1`
  
  `/slider/(.*)` -> `/uploads/slider/$1`
