URL Variables with/w/o slashes Upload Directories vs Resource URLs












2















Wordpress 5.0.3



CiviCRM 5.9.0



I'm looking at the help pop-ups compared on two pages. (The text in the black box in the two images)



I've got Path Variables on the Upload Directories page:
Path Variables - Upload Directories Page



I've got URL Variables on the Resource URLs Page:
URL Variables - Resource URLs page



They are supposed to be the same variables: [cms.root], [civicrm.root] and [civicrm.files], yet on the former page, the variables have no slashes. On the latter page, they do have slashes. I suspect the one without slashes is correct, because the Extensions Directory for both uses [civicrm.files]/ext/ and had already been set that way.



Before I make any mistakes, these are the settings I have on Resource URLs now:



CiviCRM Resource URL: wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/



Image Upload URL: wp-content/plugins/files/civicrm/persist/contribute/



These are what I should probably change them to:



CiviCRM Resource URL: [civicrm.root]/



Image Upload URL: [civicrm.files]/persist/contribute/



Please confirm.



Is it possible this a minor bug?

          Its not a bug, adding extra '/' won't make any difference. The variables shown Directories and Resource URL forms have same naming conventions however they are rendered in different way for each form.



          CiviCRM Resource URL: [civicrm.root]/

          Image Upload URL: [civicrm.files]/persist/contribute/


          Your Settings looks fine.

          • Thank you so much. So you're saying that CiviCRM has a routine that checks for both cases and renders accordingly, correct? But still, wouldn't it be more logical if [cms.root] and the other variables were listed identically across the interface for consistency's sake?
