Redirect loop

[j-jalving]

When editing the slug of an entry a redirect is automatically created. Is this done by the plugin or by Statamic?

Either way, it seems to be causing some issues. Sometimes I notice after renaming the slug and visiting the page, I get caught in a redirect loop. You can see it in this example where the slug kennis has been renamed to kennisbank:

I think this might be caused by a faulty regex. As you can see it just keeps adding everything after kennis over and over again.

I have observed the same behaviour. Redirects which are created automatically on change of an entry use match_type regex and the capture group is appended at the end of the redirect, which can lead to such loops.

Take this example:
/test(.*) redirects to /test-new-url$1, now visit /test-. It will lead to something like /test-new-url-new-url-new-url-new-url-new-url-new-url-new-url... and so on in the address bar and eventually chrome will tell you that the page is broken (ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS).
