| Sort of. It will work for path-based MU sites, but not for domain-based sites due to an architectural flaw in the Wordpress core.

| Absolutely! Just because you have only one site now doesn't mean you won't have a staging site in the future. If you ever decide to contract out professional↵ development services you'll want to work with someone who does follow this process. And at that point in time it will be a nice time-saver if you have already↵ developed content that works with root-relative links. | You have to log in to add a translation. | Details | |

| Additionally, unless you are a network administrator, testing your staging URL on an iPhone or other mobile device is really difficult because the recommendation for↵ staging environments by Wordpress core members is to edit your hosts file. Only you cannot edit hosts files on a mobile device, so you'd have to resort to complex↵ router configurations that many people don't have at their disposal on typical WIFI networks. | You have to log in to add a translation. | Details | |

| With root-relative URLs you can make and test your changes on a staging server and then, when the changes are completely vetted, move your changes to your production↵ server. You could do this with absolute URLs as well, but that adds an extra step of doing a search / replace of all http://staging.com/ links to http://production.com/.↵ This extra step is not required in most content management systems. And a step that can potentially break your site depending on what widgets and plugins you are using (http://www.interconnectit.com/719/migrating-a-wordpresswpmubuddypress-website/) | You have to log in to add a translation. | Details | |

| Good question. There are a number of core developers who think the design decision makes an end-user's life easier. But that's only for those who maintain↵ one site and make all of their edits on that public site. Professional web developers would never consider making changes on a production site because if a mistake↵ were made (yes even professionals make mistakes) then you have an immediate problem in production. Instead changes should be made on a development or staging↵ server first, thoroughly tested, and then migrated to production as a best practice. | You have to log in to add a translation. | Details | |

| Traditional relative URLs are bad because any change to your directory structure can change where the content is relative to.↵ But Root-Relative URLs are good because you'll always know where they start, and search engines support their usage so you'll have no problems with SEO.↵ In fact, over 93% of the top 100 websites (according to Alexa) use root relative urls. Including Wordpres.org, Wordpress.com, Facebook.com, Twitter.com, Google.com, Wikipedia.org, Yahoo.com, Youtube.com, Amazon.com, Fickr.com etc.↵ Most RSS Feed readers handle them appropriately (notable exceptions include FeedBurner and FeedBlitz) but my plugin takes into account their lack of HTML specification adherence. | You have to log in to add a translation. | Details | |

| Some Wordpress core developers think this is "doing it wrong" and "may not be supported in future content platforms like books." But I can assure you they are a core & valued aspect of the web and are not likely to go away. (I'm currently trying to explain to FeedBurner & FeedBlitz how it's their responsibility to improve their support for the RSS format and not that of others to adhere to an archaic practice like absolute urls.) | You have to log in to add a translation. | Details | |
