## Descripción

This powerful plugin simplifies website maintenance by automatically converting 
absolute paths (URLs) for resources like links, scripts, stylesheets, and images
to relative paths. This ensures your website functions flawlessly regardless of 
its location on a server or domain.

### Enhanced Efficiency and Flexibility

 * **Seamless Relocation:** Move your website with confidence, knowing all paths
   will adjust accordingly, preventing broken links and preserving a seamless user–
   experience.
 * **Centralized Control:** Update paths once in a central location, eliminating
   the need for tedious, site-wide modifications.
 * **Potential Performance Boost:** Relative paths can, in some cases, improve website
   loading times.

### Whitelist Your Domains (Optional)

For extra control, you can specify a list of domains that will always be converted
to relative paths. This ensures internal links are always optimized while allowing
external resources to function properly.

### Embrace a Streamlined Approach

This plugin empowers you to focus on creating exceptional content while eliminating
the burden of managing absolute paths. Take control, optimize your workflow, and
ensure your website’s continued success!

### Filters

If you want to make plugin works and all the paths relative without going to check/
visit Settings Page so, just add this line in your theme’s `functions.php`.

    ```
    add_filter( 'make_paths_relative_activate_all', '__return_true' );
    ```

**Note**: Make sure to check the settings Page.

I have a clean WordPress install using the Twenty Twenty-Two Version: 1.2 theme.
The only plugin installed is yours, ‘Make Paths Relative’. In settings I checked
the box for ‘Image Paths’. Then changed the WordPress > Settings > General > Timezone
from ‘London’ to ‘Los Angeles’ Then BOOM! the following error appears: One or more
database tables are unavailable. The database may need to be repaired. Upon investigation
in myPHPAdmin we discovered that the _options table field ‘option_name’ > ‘siteurl’
and ‘home’ were blank where the websites url should be. Once, we manually put in
the URL into these fields, went back to the site, and refreshed; it worked again
until we changed the timezone back again. We also tested this on different web hosts,
servers, and with different themes and were able to reproduce the behaviour.

Not working with WP 5.8, broke site completely while links are still absolute.

Lightweight, easy to use, and it works. One of my must-have plugins.

This is just the perfect plugin: I installed it, easily set it the way I want it,
then refreshed my site and immediately saw the results. If only all plugins were
this straightforward, quick, and effective!

I didn’t like the plugin. While enabled, it broke internal site links. Both http
and https gave «too many redirects» error. Also, the tools to share on Twitter, 
Facebook, etc. gave error because the URL appeared relative (without the site domain).
Just disable the plugin for both problems to end. I do not recommend.
