.htaccess RewriteRule(s) not working

I am trying to learn how to use RewriteRule.

I have 2 'pages' (wordpress)-
domain.com/webinars/ (shows list of all webinars)
and
domain.com/webinar/ (shows specific webinar details)

domain.com/webinars/

domain.com/webinar/

I have trying to set the following conditions -

(1) domain.com/webinars/{Year}/{Month}/ will load /webinar/?year={Year}&month={Month}

domain.com/webinars/{Year}/{Month}/

/webinar/?year={Year}&month={Month}

(2) domain.com/webinar/ (with no /{Year}/{Month}) will load /webinars/

domain.com/webinar/

/{Year}/{Month}

/webinars/

(3) domain.com/webinar/?year={Year}&month={Month} will redirect to /webinars/{Year}/{Month}/ and then apply condition #1

domain.com/webinar/?year={Year}&month={Month}

/webinars/{Year}/{Month}/

This is my attempted code

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^/webinars/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9]+)/$ /webinar/?year=$1&month=$2 [NC]

RewriteRule ^/webinar/$ /webinars/

RewriteRule ^/webinar/year=(d+)$month=([w-]+)$ /webinars/%1/%2? [R=301,L]


Condition #1 results in a 404 page not found

Condition #2 shows /webinar/ and not /webinars/

/webinar/

/webinars/

Condition #3 stays on domain.com/webinar/?year={Year}&month={Month} and does not redirect

domain.com/webinar/?year={Year}&month={Month}

What am I doing wrong? Only other code in my htaccess file is the default wordpress block.

Try the following :

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^webinars/([^/]+)/([^/]+) /webinar/?year=$1&month=$2 [NC]


The rest could be done the same way .

([0-9]+)

([A-Za-z0-9]+)

([^/]+)

([^/]+)

/

Try with below rules,

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webinar$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^year=([^/]+)&month=([^/]+)
RewriteRule ^ http://example.com/webinars/%1/%2/? [R=302]


RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webinars/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/$
RewriteRule ^ webinar/?year=%1&month=%2 [L,END]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/webinar/$
RewriteRule ^ webinars/ [L]


404 GET /webinars/2018/May/ HTTP/1.0

https://example.com/webinar/?year=2018&month=May

https://example.com/webinars/

You can use this

RewriteEngine on
# if /webinar/ is requested skip the rules and serve /webinar/ directory
RewriteRule ^webinar/?$ - [L]
#redirect /webinar/?year={year}&month={month}
#To /webinar/year/month
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /webinar/?year=([^s&]+)&month=([^s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^.+$ /webinar/%1/%2? [L,R]
# rewrite new url to the old one
RewriteRule ^webinar/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /webinar/?year=$1&month=$2 [L,NC]


500 [core:alert] RewriteCond: cannot compile regular expression '/webinar/?year=([^s&]+)&month=([^s&)'
