wordpress add_rewrite_rule issue, i think i am doing this all wrong, help please!

Hi, i am having some struggles with an add rewrite rule, i have tried a lot of combinations and things.

here is the scenario i have a custom post type named community_blog, links to post within it ends like this:

https://mysite.com/community_blog/my-sample-post

i want to be able to access my sample post via https://mysite.com/community_blog/my-sample-post and have the same post to display if the user types https://mysite.com/ca/community_blog/my-sample-post

here is the rewrite rule i am adding but is not working, is just redirecting to https://mysite.com/community_blog/my-sample-post when i try the ca version.

please help, i can get it to work, whats wrong, thank you so much :).

code i am using: add_action('init',function(){ //rewrite add_rewrite_rule('ca/community_blog/([^/?]+)/?$','index.php?community_blog=$matches[1]','top'); flush_rewrite_rules(); });
