## Canonical URL
|
|
|
|
base_url + base_path + permalink
|
|
|
|
## Base URL
|
|
|
|
base_url is the point of ownership
|
|
|
|
In most cases that would be https://johndoe.com
|
|
|
|
In some cases that might be https://school.edu/~/johndoe
|
|
|
|
It does NOT include a trailing /
|
|
|
|
## Base Path
|
|
|
|
base_path is the blog directory
|
|
|
|
In most cases that would be / or /blog/
|
|
|
|
It DOES include BOTH a LEADING and TRAILING slash.
|
|
|
|
In the case of https://school.edu/~/johndoe/weblog, the base_path would be /weblog/.
|
|
|
|
## Permalink
|
|
|
|
The permalink is the permanent part of the URL, after the path to the blog.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
- http://blog.johndoe.com/articles/first-post.html the permalink is articles/first-post.html
|
|
- http://johndoe.com/blog/articles/first-post.html the permalink is still articles/first-post.html
|
|
- http://school.edu/~/johndoe/blog/articles/first-post.html the permalink is yet still articles/first-post.html
|
|
|
|
The permalink is ALWAYS RELATIVE (no leading slash)
|
|
|
|
It is designed so that if you ever move your blog from one domain, point of ownership, or path to a new one,
|
|
a very simple one-line redirect can be made to your webserver and all of the posts will end up in the right place
|
|
once again.
