Hi - I have some links to pages in my site.  I created them in the Text/HTML module.  During development the pages I link to are on localhost.  Now that I am on a live server I would expect the pages to be loaded from the live server.  However, they are still linked to localhost.

Is there a way to use wildcards in the address or some other way to change the link without having to individually change them all?

Apologies if this has been answered before.

Depending on what you are doing and how your local setup is, you could use root relative linking, aka links that start with /.

This only works though if you do NOT have a virtual directory on your local environment.

Thanks Mitchel
I'm not using virtual directories so I would like to try your suggestion. I have this line:
linktext "http://localhost/SiteManagement/CourseMaterials.aspx"
Would I just replace it with this?
linktext "/SiteManagement/CourseMaterials.aspx">"
Thanks Robbie
