How to redirect a directory?

Question

URL Handling

Any url from the page of the /catalog section can be easily opened, and in terms of content it will also duplicate the
site.rf/catalog section.
Example: site.rf/catalog/vsem-privet = site.rf/catalog

Answer 1

RedirectMatch 301 ^/(catalog)/ /$1
Or
RewriteRule ^(catalog)/ /$1 [R=301,L]
