Question 246306 in Javascript Question posted in
A very good W3school tutorial can be found here.

Javascript – Allow a two specific phrase and continue

I have a RegEx originally like this:

/https://medal.tv/gameseuro-truck-sim-2/clips/([A-z0-9-]+)(/[A-z0-9]+)?(??[A-z0-9]+=?[A-z0-9]+-[A-z0-9]+)?/

which works perfectly, however, I would like it to work both when it is "euro-truck-sim-2" and "imported-clips". I have not too much (practically, zero) experience with RegEx and I have no clue what I am doing wrong. This is what I tried and I don’t know if the RegEx or something else is broken with the code itself.

/https://medal.tv/games/(imported-clips|euro-truck-sim-2+)?/clips/([A-z0-9-]+)(/[A-z0-9]+)?(??[A-z0-9]+=?[A-z0-9]+-[A-z0-9]+)?/

What I see is that after the imported-clips match, there is nothing else after that in my link:

https://medal.tv/clips/imported-clips

Expected behavior should be:

https://medal.tv/games/imported-clips/clips/remglmZK54/egmkr4t

or

https://medal.tv/games/euro-truck-sim-2/clips/remglmZK54/egmkr4t

changed into

let re =
    /(?<=https://medal.tv/)games/(imported-clips|euro-truck-sim-2)/(?=clips/[A-z0-9]+)|/[A-z0-9]+$/g;

let out1 = str1.replace(re, '');
console.log(out1)

let out2 = str2.replace(re, '');
