We're running our sites on a VPS - When we're running our sites with a domain name, all images are detected just fine, but when we're running it from our pre-production thing on the VPS, the URL generated into the CSS should be: vps.com/~sitethingy/images/etc but it is generated as vps.com/images/etc instead.

We're using the JURI::root function.

Any idea how to fix this so it'll work on our pre-production sites as well?

  • What happens if you use JUri::base() ?

  • Another way to solve this is to add RewriteBase /~sitethingy to the .htaccess file although maybe not a long term solution.

Will put this as a proper answer for a reference.

Rather than using JUri::root(), you need to use JUri::base().

The difference being (I think) is that root can be overridden, where as base can't be. Might be wrong, but hopefully someone can clarify this.
