    I have re-built a site from Evo to Revo. All went well except for the site paths. Where I used to link to an image like:

    assets/images/photo.jpg


    It now wont work (appears as broken link) unless I put the complete path,e eg:

    http://mysite.com/assets/images/photo.jpg


    This isnt such a big deal changing the image paths, but it totally breaks Wayfinder.

    Does anyone know a way to fix this?

    Thanks

      Does your template have the <base href="[[++site_url"]]> meta tag in its head?
