This solution is excellent! I modified it a little to match for empty $step and
then continue, just in case there is a leading, ending or doubled “/“ and same
for CONFIGURATION which will be my indicator to find the values where we expect
a value replacement.
if ($step === '' || $step === 'CONFIGURATION’) {
continue;
}
Great thing!
Thanks a lot to all!
Cheers, Nils
