Mass code update, necessary?

  • Hello everyone,

    If my images are currently referenced as such…

    <p><img border="1" src="/images/journal/hizamakura/hizamakura.jpg" /></p>

    And I move my entire WordPress installation into a subdirectory of where it is now… Will the images on my site break?

    I believe that since I have started referencing them with the directory level.. / … That it’s what is called “absolute” referencing and things won’t break even if I move the WP installation.

    Want to verify though!

    Thanks for any help.

  • If you’re just moving the blog, but not that images directory, you’ll be fine.

    If the images are moving as well, then those absolute referenced ones will indeed be broken.
