First, any images inserted within an article have an absolute address which breaks. For example: <img src="/media/99/picture.jpg"> really needs to be <img src="/umbraco1/media/99/picture.jpg">. The RichText editor forces images back to the default absolute address. Is there a fix?
Second, macros that load images need paths that adjust to your position in the site map.
What I am looking for is something like this within the XSLT file
Is /umbraco1 a virtual directory with it's own application or just a regular subfolder? I believe the above issue will happen when it's a regular subdirectory and not an application.
Also are you running 4.7? There was a bug in previous versions (< 4.6 ?) with the same issue when running in a virtual directory.
Ok, this is upgraded. It is running at 98%. I might just do a fresh install of 4.7.0 on a host where it can reside in the site root. There are some new quirky issues arising requiring hacking. It just doesn't play nice within a virtual directory. Thanks
Dynamic file paths for images
Ok, there has to be an easy answer to this that I am missing....
I have a local install of Umbraco with a http://localhost/umbraco1 for development purposes.
First, any images inserted within an article have an absolute address which breaks. For example: <img src="/media/99/picture.jpg"> really needs to be <img src="/umbraco1/media/99/picture.jpg">. The RichText editor forces images back to the default absolute address. Is there a fix?

What I am looking for is something like this within the XSLT file
<img src="{umbraco.library:SuperDuperNiceUrl('media/misc/picture.jpg')}">
which will adjust the image path to:
<img src="/umbraco1/media/misc/picture.jpg">
Suggestions anyone?
Hi,
Is /umbraco1 a virtual directory with it's own application or just a regular subfolder? I believe the above issue will happen when it's a regular subdirectory and not an application.
Also are you running 4.7? There was a bug in previous versions (< 4.6 ?) with the same issue when running in a virtual directory.

It is a virtual directory with its own application.
no, I just realize it is not version 4.7. So, obviously I need to upgrade before continuing.
