RSS feed from another DNN site (Ventrian's News Articles, not that it matters ...) The images that accompany text have relaives paths and while they show fine on the portal of origin, they are not displaying in the consuming DNN portal using News Feed (latest).

This must be a common and therefore resolved issue ... How do you folks deal with this?

That is the news feed.

If you look at http://alumni.fredonia.edu (under construction, not live as of Dec 2008) you can see two feeds. The one at the bottom is the feed listed here; blank images. The other feed just above it, our editor went back into News Articles and manually altered the path to the images to be absolute rather than relative path.

The relative path to the image is that created by FCKEditor when inserting an image into a module.

Thanks -

I don't see it as News Feeds (RSS) module's issue, either, and didn't mean to imply that I did.

I see other RSS consumers able to display the images even though the relative path is there. Facebook, for example. Yes, they get the image and store it in a distribution center elsewhere, but they have to know how to get the image in the first place ... and the path to the image in the source they are looking at is a relative path.

We can correct this by manually entering the absolute path into FCKEditor whenever  inserting an image, but that is a manual task. Unless someone knows how FCKEditor can be configured to always put in absolute rather than relative paths. Because even though this news feed originates from News Articles, it is the text/html provider that is at the heart of the matter.

Thanks for your time and thoughts, I wonder!
