# ECOM | How to configure Relative Links on your content site

## This article will explain how to configure Relative Links on your Wordpress content site for the ECOM DNS Proxy

For the ECOM DNS proxy to be successful with your content site configuration, you will need to configure all your links as Relative Links. Relative means the links do not include the root domain and only include everything after the '.com' part of your domain.  

#### Here's an example...

**DO put links on your content pages like this (relative URL's)**

/blog/

/contact/

/menu/

/menu/categories/edibles/

/menu/brands/kanha-edibles-50419/

 

**DO NOT put links on your content pages like this (non-relative URL's)**

www.yourdomain.com/blog/

www.yourdomain.com/contact/

www.yourdomain.com/menu/

www.yourdomain.com/menu/categories/edibles/

www.yourdomain.com/menu/brands/kanha-edibles-50419/

**Install the Tymber Shop Plugin on content.rootdomain.com (RECOMMENDED)** 

1. Download the install Zip File by [clicking this **link**](https://support.blaze.me/hubfs/wp-tymber-shop-v1.0.2.zip?hsLang=en). 
     1. This plugin wil**l** auto-configure all links as Relative on the content.rootdomain.com site (required for proxy). 
            1. Relative links are the url pathname only, without the root domain included: **/menu** versus **rootdomain.com/menu**
            2. **Note**: If using the Yoast SEO plugin, the Relative links will cause a conflict. You must **Enable** the **Disable Relative URL on Admin Dashboard **setting.

**How to configure Relative Links in WordPress CMS (if not using Tymber Lite Plugin):**

1. Open the page or post editor in WordPress by selecting the page or post you want to edit from the dashboard and clicking "Edit."
2. Select the text or image that you want to turn into a link.
3. Click the "Link" icon in the formatting toolbar.
4. In the "Insert/edit link" window that appears, click on the "Or link to existing content" tab.
5. Under the "Or link to existing content" tab, select the page that you want to link to by typing in the page title or URL and selecting it from the drop-down list.
6. Once you've selected the page, you'll see its URL appear in the "URL" field. WordPress automatically creates a relative link for you, which means that the link will be relative to the current page's URL.
7. Click the "Add Link" button to save the link.

By default, WordPress will create a relative link to the page you selected, which means that the link will be relative to the current page's URL. For example, if you're linking from the homepage to the "About Us" page, the relative link would be "/about-us" (assuming "about-us" is the URL for the About Us page).

You can also manually enter the relative link in the "URL" field by adding a forward slash (/) before the page URL. For example, if you want to link to the "Contact Us" page, you would enter "/contact-us" in the "URL" field.

**Remember to always test your links to ensure they're working correctly.**

**How to configure Relative Links in Squarespace CMS:**

1. Open the page editor in Squarespace by selecting the page you want to edit from the main menu and clicking "Edit."
2. Select the text or image that you want to turn into a link.
3. Click the "Link" icon in the formatting toolbar.
4. In the "Link" window that appears, click on the "Content" tab.
5. Under the "Content" tab, select the page that you want to link to by clicking on it.
6. Once you've selected the page, you'll see its URL appear in the "Link" window. Squarespace automatically creates a relative link for you, which means that the link will be relative to the current page's URL.
7. Click the "Apply" button to save the link.

By default, Squarespace will create a relative link to the page you selected, which means that the link will be relative to the current page's URL. For example, if you're linking from the homepage to the "About Us" page, the relative link would be "/about-us" (assuming "about-us" is the URL for the About Us page).

You can also manually enter the relative link in the "Link" window by adding a forward slash (/) before the page URL. For example, if you want to link to the "Contact Us" page, you would enter "/contact-us" in the "Link" window.

**Remember to always test your links to ensure they're working correctly.**
