The {{SERVER}} variable can help you with that. You'd use [{{SERVER}}/com/mydir/somefile] and when you move to a new domain the variable will change.

I have installed a wiki as part of my website tree. I need to refer to

pages

(eg film clips) outside of the wiki installation but within the domain of the website. Is there a way to do this with relative path syntax eg. [../mydir/somefile] !

I do not want to hard code [http://www.mydomain/com/mydir/somefile] as I will be moving the wiki to a different domain (but with the same directory structure) which I would like to do without having to rename all the

links.

Any thoughts most welcome!
