Moving Site
Permalink
Hi Everyone,
Hoping someone can answer this for me. Ive built a hand full of sites using concrete5, and only just noticed this now.... but wanted to check to make sure I had my settings correct before proceeding.
I have a site that Im working on, on a subdomain that will be moved to its own domain once its ready to go live. I have lots of buttons, and links on pages, that take the user to another page within the website.
Ive been using the 'Insert Link to Page' function in the content editor to create these links....however I've just noticed, when I inspect the html, that it is using the absolute path in all these links Ive created.
Question is..... won't these all then not work when I move the website to the new domain? Or will they self correct once the site has moved?

Rony, thank for the reply, but not sure that would work, as the domain it will end up on is totally different and on another server.
The content blocks actually save the content with links and images marked by their IDs in c5. These IDs are then replaced with the actual URLs when the page is viewed.
The outcome is that links and images move quite happily with the site. Just make sure to disable pretty URLs, disable the cache and clear it before moving.

Thanks for the replies :)
