Rewriting URLs with htaccess for multiple parameters

Question

I'm trying to rewrite this:

https://mywebsite.com/pages/article.html?id=1&title=Title-Goes-Here

into

https://mywebsite.com/pages/article/1/Title-Goes-Here

Using this Rewrite Rule

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^article/([0-9]+)/([0-9a-zA-Z_-]+)$ article.html?id=$1&title=$2 [NC,L] 

However, when I try this code in https://htaccess.madewithlove.com/ it gives me

This rule was not met.

Also tried it on my website htaccess file with no result. I don't know where is the problem.

Using this in htaccess:

RewriteEngine ON
##External redirect in browser rules here....
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/([^/]*)/([^.]*)\.html\?id=([^&]*)&title=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2/%3/%4? [R=301,L]

##Internal rewrite to html file rules here....
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?$  $1/$2.html?id=$3&title=$4 [QSA,NC,L]

and this in article.html right after head opening tag

<base href="/" /> 

All is working as intended. Someone helped me with that code :)
