Incompatibility with "Allow Hyphens in Short URLs"

[18hv]

The plugin works very well but it appears incompatible with the "Allow Hyphens in Short URLs" plugin. With both plugins activated, a hyphened URL returns a page not found error; while non-hyphened URLs still work fine.
Is it possible to modify and work with hyphened URLs?

Modify the .htaccess in the instructions to have "[-0-9A-Za-z]+" instead of "[0-9A-Za-z]+"

Thanks, where specifically do I make this change, there is no similar data in .htaccess (in the Yourls root directory)?

You need to direct traffic from your defined short url to your yourls installation. To do this, create (or modify) an .htaccess file in the directory you defined as your YOURLS_SHORT_URL with the following:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# BEGIN YOURLS

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/yourls-go.php?id=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/yourls-infos.php?id=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+all/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/yourls-infos.php?id=$1&all=1 [L]

# END YOURLS

In the RewriteRules above, change the prefix to ^([-0-9A-Za-z]+), instead of ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)

I made an edit to the comment above, the hyphen should go inside the square brackets.

It is also sufficient to replace the three RewriteRules with just one:

RewriteRule ^([-0-9A-Za-z]+(\+(all)?)?\~?)/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/$1 [L]

I have tried all recommendations and various options, and still a hyphen in the shortened URL does not work. There must be something else in my configuration stopping it?

It works when I changed the prefix to ^ ([- 0-9A-Za-z] +),
in every rule

Thank You jslching
