[GeoNode-devel] Using "/" as SITEURL

Sun Apr 15 20:00:51 PDT 2018

Hello !

I'm still fighting a little bit with this, as it seems that when running
updateip, layer thumbnails are lost...

It would be much simpler/portable if we could use a relative URL. Besides
the use case already mentioned (several hosts/schemes) I think it's quite
common to setup an instance (including uploading data, styles, thumbnails
etc) before having the final domain name.

The only place where I could understand an absolute URL is if there's such
a thing as main endpoint urls in some metadata.

I'll try to see if this is easy to fix or not (it almost worked in 2.6,
there's a new exception in 2.8).

Francesco can you develop a little bit the relation between SITEURL and
django.contrib.site ? From what I understand, there's no relation between
the two.

Kind regards,

Olivier
