Grupa: Nesoi: because that’s not how they do it and it’s not going to change, so leave it alone.
Guiggey: Opsec does things his own way; they’re not replicable by mortal users.
Averitt: Thetennis: what files are in /home/craftyin/public_html/donatethecar.net ?
Pratley: Rather. where is wp-config.php?
Teachout: Is this a multisite or single site?
Bottomley: Home/craftyin/public_html/donatethecar.net/wp-config.php
Mulero: Do you have an .htaccess file there?
Aderson: I am going to try reuploading
Maultasch: In the donatethecar.net folder?
Lipschutz: If that’s where the do***ent root is, yes.
Profera: I’m going back to watching “Genesis of the Daleks”.
Lupino: I haven’t edited it or anything
Uzzo: Make sure you edit wp-config.php to work with the new database name and user which you probably had to ***ign.
Cushing: Opsec: I hope I didn’t annoy sterndata by agreeing with you :
Pyle: But I really don’t see why they would prefer absolute URLs. is there some logic behind that?
Leinen: This has been discussed to death
Essig: Fujihara: so what’s the summary?
Galavis: The reason I found was:
Galletti: Ignoring all the other arguments I would say absolute urls are essential for one reason.
Tinson: Any images with relative urls will not work in feed readers since they will try to load the image relative to the reader eg load from reader.google.com which clearly won’t work.
Brennan: This is not really valid because the URLs could be fully qualified at runtime
Oyuela: Based on the current base URL setting
Lasiter: Also it would seem that using absolute URLs precludes a dev/test/production workflow
Tamm: Or is there a way to get that to work?
Endries: What’s so hard about using search and replace to fix the urls?
Pevey: And if you use a plugin like Duplicator, it does it automatically
Gushwa: Yeah i normally would
Belle: Domain is expired do wordpress access
Ramsaroop: Ok, so your workflow would be what: develop on your dev server, write a search and replace procedure in the move to test and move to production scripts?
Deckard: 10 seconds btw is not acceptable in to be down in a production site
Osby: And anyway, there is no real use case that proves relative urls are better – https://core.trac.----escape_autolink_uri:a03ded6cd97ffffa8f7b4e1454f3eecc----.org/ticket/17048
Armenta: And I’m surprised, you mean you will copy db changes directly to production? That’s a big no-no
Kaltefleiter: I think I just mentioned a use case that’s very very typical in any professional production environment
Wrzesinski: If I were making any code changes – I would be using WP functions that can give me the correct URL, so moving files = my IDE uploading the file to the correct server
Borom: If it was db related, I would have a function that inputs the correct values into db, regardless of the URL
Pansullo: Using your IDE to move to production is not acceptable in any really professional environment
Christoph: Move to production ALWAYS has to be automated
Bula: The only time I use search and replace is when I make the initial move
Douvier: Otherwise human error can cause an outage
Auslam: Manual move to production is only done by hobbyists
Gouthier: To summarise – Absolute URLs are staying. You probably have better things to worry about
Biermann: Fujihara: it shows a lack of understanding of real production methodologies IMHO :
Ingber: You are free to have your opinion and feel free to contribute a trac ticket towards the discussion.
Lovera: If “%{HTTP_HOST} == ‘thepartyonline.com’ ”
Macneal: RedirectMatch /imgs/.*$ http://imgs.thepartyonline.com/$1
Ganison: Ugh why does this not work
