Relational links in blocks
Using vategories and blocks, I have developed a Wikipedia like system for boiler plate messages, e.g. "this node needs editing", or "this node would benefit from an image", etc. In each block I include some text, CSS class for formatting and a link to the category concerned, with the idea that if you click on this you can see all other nodes that need editing or images etc. However, I am finding that sometimes the links don't work - somehow they aren't fully relational, for example if the node has the prefix "images/" which some have thanks to pathauto.
<table class="BlockContentTableNoPrint">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="BlockContentStripe"></td>
<td class="BlockContentIconImportantOrange"></td>
<td>One or more hyperlinks on this page are in need of repair.
<a href="category/website_development/fix_links">All articles containing broken hyperlinks »</a>.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>I have also tried using ...
<table class="BlockContentTableNoPrint">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="BlockContentStripe"></td>
<td class="BlockContentIconImportantOrange"></td>
<td>One or more hyperlinks on this page are in need of repair.
<a href="../../category/website_development/fix_links">All articles containing broken hyperlinks »</a>.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>I don't really want to use a non relational URL such as "http://mywebsite.com/category/website_development/fix_links", as currrently the site is on a local test server, and I want the links to work on the test server, and also when I upload to the webserver.
Any suggestions please?
I solved my own problem.
I solved my own problem. There are three modules that seem to offer a solution: Pathfilter, Pathologic and URL replacement filter.
Having read a little about the three, I opted for URL replacement filter.
Having installed it and enabled it, I simply used the code...
<table class="BlockContentTableNoPrint"><tbody>
<tr>
<td class="BlockContentStripe"></td>
<td class="BlockContentIconImportantOrange"></td>
<td>One or more hyperlinks on this page are in need of repair.
<a href="http://localhost/drupal/category/website_development/fix_links">All articles containing broken hyperlinks »</a>.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
... and now the links in my blocks seem to work consistently throughout my site.
