How to modify url in lighttpd config

I've a problem with my lighttpd setup. Here is where the problem begins:

server.document-root = vhosts_dir + "/" + server.name + "/wp"

Inside that directory are all files. Now, on this site is an image which has an url like

http://example.com/wp/uploads.....

Inside lighttpd this will translate to 

`/var/www/vhosts/example.com/wp/wp/...

Unfortunately I cannot remove the wp part from the document-root :(

So I tried to rewrite this by removing one of the wps as follows

url.rewrite-once = (
  "^(.*)/wp/(.*)$" => "$1/$2"
)

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to have zero effect, nothing seems to be modified. Any idea how to fix this?

One option is to create a symlink wp -> . inside /var/www/vhosts/example.com/wp/

Another is to use lighttpd mod_alias to map requests to /wp to the document-root: alias.url = ( "/wp/" => "/var/www/vhosts/example.com/wp/" )
