In wordpress, there are several different ways you can display a file path to an article or a picture even.

There are two types of paths:

  • Absolute - this one is the easiest because it contains the full complete url to your item. This could be a path to an internal link or external link or whatever path you may need like an image path.

    Your absolute path would look like this for an img:

    <img src="" alt="Comapny Logo">

  • Relative Paths - relative paths are a bit confusing until you figure it out.
    I used what i called the ladder to determine with link to use.

W3Schools.com has an awesome graph showing the different links. Here is one of the pictures they show of Relative paths:

If you have to go into your HTML and adjust the link, this will give you a good of what to look for your code. I try to stay away from relative links. To me they just hide your path. I prefer to let my visitors know the entire link.
