Double forward slash on urls

Hi there,
I am creating Twitter and Facebook cards using an image TV for each of my resources
If I just use the TV on its own, it doesn't work, because twitter requires an absolute URL.
So I added the site_url property before the tv like so:

But the output in the source code is rendered with a double forward slash like so:


Although in a browser, this still seems to work, Facebook and Twitter don't seem to like it.
Any ideas how to remove the extra slash?


Thanks in advance

Andy

Either SocialImage or pthumb is adding a leading slash.

I think this would fix it, though it's kind of hacky:

I think this would fix it, though it's kind of hacky:

<meta itemprop="image" content="[[++site_url:removeTrailingSlash]][[*SocialImage:pthumb=`&w=500&h=500` ]]">

/* removeTrailingSlash snippet */
return rtrim($input, '/');

Thanks Bob - I just removed pThumb from the code, and it resolved the issue - so it is pThumb which is adding the additional slash. I will do some more digging to see if anyone else has experience the same issue with pThumb.

Thanks for the steer!

Andy, did you ever get to the bottom of this? I'm seeing the same thing.

As per the thread, I had to remove pThumb from the image URL, and then it worked - not ideal, but it was sufficient for my needs - it just meant I had to manually resize the image.

Hope this helps!

Ah ok - not an option for me but thanks for coming back to me.

My solution above might solve it for you.

Thank you Bob - how would I use it if just calling?..
