htaccess - remove segment of url with redirect

Need to use .htaccess to redirect all urls that have blog-entry in path like this:

http://example.com/blog/blog-entry/blog-title

to this:

http://example.com/blog/blog-title

Tried this per another stack answer, but no luck:

RewriteRule ^blog-entry/(.*)$ $1 [L,R=301,QSA]

Please advise.

Change your rule with this rule:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(.*)/blog-entry/(\S*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2 [R=301,NE,L]

Since we're using THE_REQUEST here, this rule will work from site root or /blog/ directory.
