<p>A WordPress plugin that converts all URL formats to root-relative URLs to enable seamless transitioning between staging/production host environments and debugging/testing from mobile devices, without the use of hackish tactics like textual find-replace strategies or risky hosts/NAT spoofing strategies.</p>
<p>With Root Relative URLs you can browse your development site from http://localhost/ or http://127.0.0.1/ or from a named network resource like http://mycomputername/ without worrying about links redirecting you back to your site’s URL.</p>
<p>This plugin also modifies the tinyMCE hooks so links and media embedded with built-in tools will only insert URLs from the first forward slash after the domain (i.e. the root of your site.)  This means when you push content changes to a staging or production environment they are guaranteed to reference the correct target instead of accidentally referencing a production resource in development or, worse-yet, a development-exclusive resource in production.</p>
<p>It supports path-based MU Installations, but does not support domain-based MU sites due to architectural deficiencies in the WordPress core.</p>
<p>Version 1.5 fixes an infinite redirect problem that is a result of a core bug in WordPress.  If you have problems with the <!–more–> tag or permalinks for custom post types, please read the FAQ or new Install Steps for support.</p>
<p>Version 2.2 allows for adding certain URL’s or partial URL’s to a blacklist, meaning I won’t use root relative urls, but dynamic absolute URLs instead for displaying content.  This will fix problems with 3rd party plugins, and can be configured on the General Settings page.</p>
