Permalinks “on” but images “gone”

i had the same problem, using images with relative URIs.

the first solution (which i found somewhere on here):
use absolute URIs – like <img src=”/folder/file.jpg”> instead of <img src=”folder/file.jpg”> (note the slash after src=”!)

the second solution would be to add the following lines to wordpress/wp-includes/formatting.php (in line 28):

$curl = str_replace(‘src=”‘, ‘src=”/’, $curl);
$curl = str_replace(‘src=”/https://’, ‘src=”https://&#8217;, $curl);
`

using the second solution, you can keep linking as before, and the changes will be made automatically (and retroactively). external links are “cleaned” of the preceding “root-slash”.

I have a similar problem. I built my wp site locally. When I (idiot) added the photos to the site like shown below:

https://localhost:8888/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/image.jpg

Theres lot of photos, it’ll be a tedious task for me to chance all of them. Can I use the code mentioned upper to get it done somehow? To replace the https://localhost:8888?

Thank you.

Always posting too hastily.

I found the following to work in my case:

$curl = str_replace('src="https://localhost:8888/wordpress','src="/wptest', $curl);

Just checking that is it done correctly? It works though.

Cheers.
