How to write the proper regexp?

Question

I would like to create a regexp for these occurences:

works for:

*menupoint/example

and not accept this:

*menupoint/example/example

so after the menupoint teher will be maximum one /. I tried this one but not working:

%menupoint\/[^\/]+

Thanks for the helps!

`[^\/]+` matches 1+ chars other than `/`. Maybe you need `.menupoint\/.+` (`.+` matches any 1+ chars)? — Wiktor Stribiżew, Mar 02 '17 at 11:00
There is a mismatch between your regex and your hypothetical input. Also, please format properly — Mad Physicist, Mar 02 '17 at 11:01
Does it help? Please add details to your question: what tool it is, how you are using the regex, what the method is... — Wiktor Stribiżew, Mar 02 '17 at 11:19

How about use "$" sign to match the end of the string, it will make sure the "/" after "menupoint" is the last "/" in your target string.

menupoint\/[^\/]+$
