Symlink for static assets issue #3382

Closed calebfaruki closed 7 years ago

calebfaruki commented 7 years ago

Our company has Wordpress installation hosted on AWS with Engine Yard config. We have a symlink to /wp-content/ to a shared folder that is preserved when we update. I noticed your ReduxCore/framework.php file accounts for symlinks to plugins, but not for static assets.

By the way, I'm using a Wordpress theme that uses your framework. Do you have any recommendations for how to fix?

Relevant theme file: /wp-content/themes/voice/include/options/ReduxCore/framework.php:129

Added line to 128:

self::$_url = str_replace('/data/blog/shared/wp-content','',self::$_url);

This is obviously a hack. But it fixed the problem for me.

We have a filter for self::$_url. Use add_filter with redux/_url as the tag. Then you may specify and URL you like. That's about as close a fix as will ever be for those rare situations like this. Good luck.

Ah perfect, thank you very much! Your answer lead me to this article which allowed me to solve my issue.

For anyone else needing a fix on this, here was my solution:

<?php

// define the redux/_url callback
function filter_redux__url( $self_url ) { 
    // make filter magic happen here... 
    return str_replace($symlink_path_substring,'', $self_url);
}; 

// add the filter
add_filter( 'redux/_url', 'filter_redux__url', 10, 1 ); 

?>
