Module fails to return a redirect, for URI's that contain query strings

[toddpadwick]

Query string rules do not work - such as:
/news/?filter_category=universities => /loop

It simply returns a 404.

Hi @toddpadwick, I've found an easy solution for this problem.
The field from is expecting a regex, so the problem is that ? will be interpret as a quantifier.
To fix the problem, you have to escape special characters with \

You should have something like that:
{ from: '/news\?filter_category=universities', to: '/loop' }

Ah okay thank you @Thomas-Deasington . That works now!
