I rebuilded site with new design old webpage had urls ending with .html. Webpage has 3 languages. Domain stays the same.
vervo.lv
. Test domain url:
pvclogiem.lv
I plan to do few things:
1. Remove .html at end of all urls
2. redirect old news articles to main news (en, ru languages) directory
3. Remove language code /lv from main language
4. Rewrite main language news article urls without /lv and html
Main products / contacts / info i will redirect manually using joomla built in redirect system (they are few) but news articles are old (about 500 in every language) and i want to redirect /en and /ru to language based news category.
Main language news I exported to new webpage but now they don't have language code /lv and .html at the end.
Old urls looks like: vervo.lv/ru/news/43-jaunumi/538-2012gad-...-ar-afganistanu.html
I plan redirect them to mysite.lv/ru/novosti, mysite.lv/en/news
Is it possible to redirect every thing from direcotory mysite.lv/ru/news.html to mysite.lv/ru/news and the same for en. ru languages? not redirecting other stuff?
And just rewrite old main language articles without lv and html? not affecting other stuff?
Could you suggest how to correctly do this. I am not programmer. just advanced joomla user. - seos.lv/pakalpojumi/seo-optimizacija SEO Pakalpojumi

Since this is strictly Joomla core feature and problem you should really ask this in official Joomla forum and not here
Try to use Redirect extensions which comes with Joomla and some kind of SEF URLs extension like sh404sef - Check my services at: Mihha-Vision
