Problems with shortlink rewrite (costum)

I'm trying to rewrite let's say

"(?<!/)modules.php\?name=modules.php?name=News&new_topic=4"',

to some subject like

'this_subject',

the same with topic=5/6/7
and different rewrite to each "topic"

but it doesn't work,
Itried to do it in GT-Topics, and GT-News

the reason for that is that i want to have normal name in url bar than

article-topic 1/2/3/4/

what am i doing wrote?

ShortLinks can only tap the links using information from the links themselves. The link you posted, for example, does not have the subject in it, so it can't be tapped the way you wish. You would have to modify News and Topics module index.php to add the subject onto the URL... then you might be able to tap it.

.. and then you would have to be very careful that no subject was used again unless you add something unique to the tap like the $sid
