I've got a small problem related to the images used within my
RSS Feed (using CPalm's Umbraco Rss in Umbraco 3) in that the images used in the
feed are provided via relative links.
Everytime i create a new
news story and update the RSS package i have to manually go into my xml
file that contains my news feed to add my web domain before every
instance of an image in order for images to be displayed correctly.
Whenever
i update my RSS the feed automatically reverts the paths of images to
/media/Image111/jpg and i need to add my domain to the front SOMEDOMAIN/media/image111.jpg in order for the images to be displayed
I
upload all of my images via the media tab in Umbraco. The rss feed
simplies collates any news stories created underneath a parent node.
In
the beginnning it was a small inconvinience having to manually edit the
xml file with the correct image path but now as i have more news
stories released more regularly its starting to get a bit frustating.
Is
there a global setting in Umbraco where I can add
"SOME DOMAIN to the start of an address for an image
so that an absolute link is created instead of a relative.

Thanking you in advance
Can you not just add the domain into the XSLT that generates the RSS feed?
