Hi all, when I deactivate root relative urls plugin (which I’ve never used on any other site before, someone else started this one) the page builder WPBakery won’t work and the site becomes a mess. Any ideas on how to fix this? …or why turning it off affects WPBakery?

When/where exactly does this function?
Am I right in thinking… when the user adds an image to a post body, the “src” gets rewritten as a local URL?
Does this happen anywhere else, eg. a local hyperlink in a post body? It would be useful to see a list in the description of all the places/times this works.

I’m having trouble with this script because my theme includes jQuery as a protocol-relative URL, it seems like lots of the issues listed here are caused by this problem too.
URLs which start with ‘//’ should be considered absolute and not touched, but the plugin is stripping one of the / causing it to become relative instead of absolute.

When I enable this plugin, the url to jquery (inserted by “Use Google Libraries”) becomes src=’/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js?ver=1.10.2′ instead of src=’//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js’
It results in an error 404 and some features not working…
I tried to add “http:” in front of the src url in the “Google Libraries” plugin without success.
I tried to add various BlackList url in “Root Relative” (via Settings > General) without more success:
– /ajax/libs/jquery
– //ajax.googleapis.com
– https://ajax.googleapis.com
Any idea how to fix this ?

]]>I have put a copy of this plugin on GitHub because it appears that the author is no longer maintaining this.
I have no real interest in maintaining this plugin myself. I just need it work and I’ve implemented some hacks to do that.

Anyway, until the author returns, if the author returns, you can find it here: https://github.com/Hube2/root-relative-urls
]]>I think there’s some limitation in the current blacklist implementation and also the help in the settings page is misleading users.
For my understanding the blacklist is only used for feeds purposes, generating a new absolute url with the current proto://host, while would be useful to have the chance to blacklist url keeping the original url, I just tried to enqueue holder.js from a cdn and it failed because the plugin replace the proto://host part of the url.
You can use partial URLs
But current implementation is:
if (stripos(get_option('emc2_blacklist_urls'), $cur_url) !== false) {
Where $cur_url is an absolute url given by dynamic_absolute_url over which users have no control, stripos find $cur_url in the blacklist string, for my understanding I’ve to put at least a string equal to $cur_url in the blacklist.
Below a patch for a different behavior (surely could be optimized), if the blacklist url begin with http (http/https) the url will remain untouched (the original proto://host), if the url begin with / (slash) the url will be a dynamic absolute.
Thanks for the plugin.
Cheers
If you are using “Root Relative URLs” and “Better WP Security / iThemes Security” and have the “Hide Login Area” setting active in “Better WP Security / iThemes Security” you will not be able to login to the WordPress admin dashboard until you rename one or the other plugin directories (via FTP) and log back in and deactivate one or the other plugin (this was not an issue with the Better WP Security plugin prior to it becoming iThemes Security).
Note: I have tested this problem with all iThemes Security plugins up to v4.0.16, and the 2.3 version of “Root Relative URLs”.
Since this is a VERY likely combinations of plugins, I thought it would be helpful to make people aware.
]]>A couple questions rolled into one:
I use google’s jquery url in meta,
My menus link to external pages not on the site,
Occasionally in theme files I need to link to things that are on remote sites,
I use fonts imported from google web fonts,
Does this plugin cause issues with any of the above scenarios?
I did quite a bit of reading but didn’t really get any good (recent) answers to the above questions. I got the impression that version 2.2 solved a lot of problems, but before I dive headlong into using this for a multi-developer-git setup, I want to know where the problems are that I will be facing.
]]>In my functions.php I add the following:
// Google’s CDN for jQuery

// Twitter API
wp_enqueue_script(‘twitter’, ‘http’ . ($_SERVER[‘SERVER_PORT’] == 443 ? ‘s’ : ”) . ‘://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js’, false, false, true);
The plugin causes the site to look for locally hosted files instead of on the externally host.
]]>Hello!
I have the Root Relative URLs plugin successfully installed and working on my site. It works fine, but when I try to use it with a Ninja Forms form it breaks upon submission of a Ninja Form.
https://ninjaforms.com/
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/ninja-forms/
I contacted Ninja Forms support already and they said to contact the developer of this plugin since it seems to be this plugin that is throwing the errors.
I’m using
– WordPress v3.7.1
– Ninja Forms v2.3.3
– Root Relative URLs v2.3
The form still shows up fine, but when submitting the form I get the following errors and am redirected to the homepage, when I should be redirected to either the same page that the form is on or a confirmation page. It depends on the settings that I have for that particular Ninja Form.
Warning: Creating default object from empty value in /wp-content/plugins/root-relative-urls/sb_root_relative_urls.php on line 97

Warning: extract() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 216
The submission is successfully submitted though and emails are sent.
I tried changing it to submit via ajax in Ninja Forms and I get an infinite spinner. The submission is also successfully submitted and emails sent.
If I create a confirmation page to use, instead of the confirmation message appearing on the same page, I get the following errors with a white screen. The submission is also successfully submitted and emails sent.

Inserting images from the media library that have been uploaded to Amazon S3 and then removed from the local server results in broken image links, I fixed this issue by patching the file sb_root_relative_urls.php.
Changed This:
static function root_relative_url($url, $html) {
//If urls already start from root, just return it
if ($url[0] == "/") return $html;
$p = parse_url($url);
$root = $p['scheme'] . "://" . $p['host'];
$html = str_ireplace($root, '', $html);
return $html;
}To This:
static function root_relative_url($url, $html) {
//If urls already start from root, just return it
if ($url[0] == "/") return $html;
// Don't strip URL data for images stored on external cloud servers such as Amazon S3...
if ( self::dynamic_absolute_url($url) ) {
$root = '';
}
else{
$p = parse_url($url);
$root = $p['scheme'] . "://" . $p['host'];
}
$html = str_ireplace($root, '', $html);
return $html;
}Otherwise this is the single best plugin for WP…
Cheers.

I updated to WordPress 3.6 and realized afterwards that, for some reason, having Root Relative installed renders the Visual Editor for posts unworkable.

]]>WordPress Version: 3.5.2
Yoast Version: 1.4.13
Root Relative URLs Version: 2.3
Hi,
I’m using Root Relative for my site, https://www.shopp.ly. Mostly for staging purposes (I have a separate staging site, a script on AWS that hits the staging site looking for changes and pushes those changes to CloudFront). Anyway, no real problems with it and happy with the plugin except one nagging issue…
I can’t seem to get absolute URLs in the XML sitemaps generated by the Yoast WordPress SEO plugin. I understand that Google’s inability to read these URLs is their problem, not this plugin’s and I’ve read other posts here about this issue, but I can’t seem to get any of the fixes to work.
You can see the sitemap here: https://www.shopp.ly/sitemap_index.xml
I’ve tried a few things. I’ve tried adding the following to the blacklist under Settings>General:
/sitemap_index.xml
/post-sitemap.xml
/page-sitemap.xml
/category-sitemap.xml
/author-sitemap.xml
That didn’t seem to do anything, so I tried adding:
https://www.shopp.ly/sitemap_index.xml
https://www.shopp.ly/post-sitemap.xml
https://www.shopp.ly/page-sitemap.xml
https://www.shopp.ly/category-sitemap.xml
https://www.shopp.ly/author-sitemap.xml
That didn’t seem to do anything either.
I tried another possible fix that I read here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/xml-sitemaps-issue-with-root-relative-urls-plugin?replies=1
I added the following code to line 556 of the file class-sitemaps.php AND tried replacing the block of text starting on 556. Neither seemed to do anything.
if (strpos($url['loc'], "http") === 0 ) {
$output .= "\t\t<loc>" . $url['loc'] . "</loc>\n";
} else {
$output .= "\t\t<loc>https://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $url['loc'] . "</loc>\n";
}But I’m not a developer, so I don’t know what this would actually do.
Anyone have any idea how I can get this working?

]]>Hi!
Great plugin, but I seem to have problems with WPML language selector dropdown menu.
Apparently the URLs which are being generated by get_ls_languages() in WPML are being trimmed by get_permalink prior WPML tries to replace domains on links which are already relative, producing all selector links as relative.
The same applies to:
<link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-NL" href="https://www.domain.nl/" /> links in the header.
Our solution, though very nasty, is as follows:

I know it’s not something you can fix (apart from perhaps introducing a utility function such as get_permalink_absolute where users could modify the broken plugins), but just wanted to post this in case some other people are struggling with a similar issue.

]]>I’m using the excellent SlimStat plugin from https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-slimstat/ along with Root Relative URLs.
SlimStat loads a small .js file with each page load to collect analytics (similar to how Google Analytics works), and it also has an option for loading that .js file from a remote CDN server. When that option is enabled, the following line should be added to the source of each page:
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/wp-slimstat/3.2.1/wp-slimstat.js'></script>
However, when Root Relative URLs is running, it seems to think this URL is a local one that needs truncating, and so the line is changed to this:
<script type='text/javascript' src='/wp-slimstat/3.2.1/wp-slimstat.js'></script>
Obviously this is incorrect, and it causes SlimStat to fail to work.
Why is Root Relative URLs treating this URL as though it’s local and in need of truncating? Can this be fixed please?
Thanks!
