Friendly URL alias path / relative image path problem

    I have friendly URL alias path enabled so a section of my site in a container named ’Clients’ can be found from the following url:

    www.domain.com/Clients/

    The problem is that when I have a page under this section with TVs referencing images as added by the file browser, the image paths are appended to the ’friendly alias’ path as follows:

    www.domain.com/Clients/assets/images/...

    ...when the /assets/ folder containing the images is actually located in the root:

    www.domain.com/assets/images/


    Obviously this means that the images do not load with Friendly Alias paths enabled.
    Does anyone know how to change the file browser paths to absolute instead of relative in order to solve this issue?

      You can configure the file paths behaviour for tinymce by going to plugins > tinymce and clicking on the configuration tab. In there you will find:

      Path Options


      This option has three possible values:

      rootrelative
docrelative
fullpathurl


      I use friendly alias myself and rootrelative is the option I use.

      Hope it helps.
