Absolute URLS

10 October 2007 at 12:21am
Hi,
It would be nice to add an absolute/relative URL switch to the CMS (the menu for example now generates relative URL's which , according to some SEO companies , is bad for google).

i thing having "one switch" would be way to global - we deal with this on a case-by-case basis. you can easily transform back and forth between relative and absolute using the Director-class.
if by "the menu" you mean the <% control Menu(1) %> in your template - no problem, just use $BaseUrl $Link.
for the data-types "Text" and "HTMLText", theres a function AbsoluteLinks().
usage in your template for example: $Content.AbsoluteLinks -

Hi Ingo,
I can't figure this out. The BaseUrl variable returns empty here?

Thanks for your quick reply.
Forgive me for asking silly questions , but how do I concatenate these two strings in the template ($BaseHref and $Link) in such a way it produces a valid URL. I end up with one slash too much. ;-)

lol sorry to put you on a wild-goose-chase here, i didn't really see the obvious:
there's a property $AbsoluteLink in sapphire/core/model/SiteTree.php (the parent-class of every Page-object).
