Converts all URLs to root-relative URLs for hosting the same site on multiple IPs, easier production migration and better mobile device testing.
A WordPress plugin that converts all URL formats to root-relative URLs to enable seamless transitioning between staging/production host environments and debugging/testing from mobile devices, without the use of hackish tactics like textual find-replace strategies or risky hosts/NAT spoofing strategies.
With Root Relative URLs you can browse your development site from http://localhost/ or http://127.0.0.1/ or from a named network resource like http://mycomputername/ without worrying about links redirecting you back to your site's URL.
This plugin also modifies the tinyMCE hooks so links and media embedded with built-in tools will only insert URLs from the first forward slash after the domain (i.e. the root of your site.) This means when you push content changes to a staging or production environment they are guaranteed to reference the correct target instead of accidentally referencing a production resource in development or, worse-yet, a development-exclusive resource in production.
It supports path-based MU Installations, but does not support domain-based MU sites due to architectural deficiencies in the WordPress core.
