So i have been on this for hours but can't get it to resolve. Nothing on stackoverflow tackles my issue. The issue is that i have a redirect rule in my .htaccess as follows
RewriteRule ^store-category/(.+)/?$ /wordpress/store-category/?cid=$1 [QSA,L] This redirect works when cid is a number but when a use a string like "my-key" it does not work. With the key i have to change the rule to this.
RewriteRule ^store-category/(.+)/?$ /wordpress/store-category/?cid=$1 [R,L] However i do not want to use this because this redirects my users visibly and the url changes, which i don't want. Can anyone please explain why this thing is working for numbers but not for string parameters. Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Complete .htaccess
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /wordpress/ RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteRule ^store-category/(.+)/?$ /wordpress/store-category/?cid=$1 [QSA,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress 4 Answers

I did some try on local and found that it works for me if I put these two rules:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d even before the row
RewriteRule ^store-category/(.+)/?$ /wordpress/store-category/?cid=$1 [QSA,L] Complete .htaccess file will be:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /wordpress/ RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^store-category/(.+)/?$ /wordpress/store-category/?cid=$1 [QSA,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L] </IfModule> Anyway, with (.+)/?$, an eventual trailing slash will be captured from the group and will go on the cid parameters. If categories doesn't have slashes inside, it's better to use ([^/]+)/?$.
Update: The understand what happen on your redirects, enable the log (see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html fo this). On my host I enabled mod_rewrite.c:trace3 and I get the following log in error_log (just tracking lines with rewrite)

Regex is greedy (left to right). You're pulling in extra slashes possibly other things. I find it easiest to use not classes for URLs (rarely '.' which will match everything).
RewriteRule ^store-category/([^\/]+)/?$ store-category/?cid=$1 [QSA,L] You may also be able to simplify to this, depending on how you want to handle urls that may be malformed after the store category id.
RewriteRule ^store-category/([^\/]+) store-category/?cid=$1 [QSA,L] EDIT: You are right. I didn't test the whole htaccess. You're specifying the wordpress path twice one in rewritebase and again in the rule. I have updated the rules above, as well as providing a link to the updated solution in a tester:
