Relative or full path URLs?
1 reply · Started by Rui on December 13, 2019
Hello!
Inside a code snippet or a hook, what is the best practice: use relative or full path URLs?
When calling an image, for example, it would be better to use:
img src=”./wp-content/uploads/fig.jpg”
img src=”https://mydomain.com/wp-content/uploads/fig.jpg”
or even ‘img src=’ . $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . ‘/wp-content/uploads/fig.jpg’ ?
Hi there,
I always just use the full URL as it always works.
Not sure if there is a best practice though as long as they work.
The theme itself doesn't control this at all.
