+With multilingual configurations, use the [`urls.RelLangURL`] function instead. The URL returned by this function depends on:
- Whether the input begins with a slash
-- The `baseURL` in site configuration
+- The `baseURL` in your site configuration
### Input does not begin with a slash
-If the input does not begin with a slash, the resulting URL will be correct regardless of the `baseURL`.
+If the input does not begin with a slash, the resulting URL will be relative to the `baseURL` in your site configuration.
With `baseURL = https://example.org/`
```go-html-template
-{{ relURL "" }} → /
-{{ relURL "articles" }} → /articles
-{{ relURL "style.css" }} → /style.css
+{{ relURL "" }} → /
+{{ relURL "articles" }} → /articles
+{{ relURL "style.css" }} → /style.css
+{{ relURL "https://example.org/foo" }} → /foo
```
With `baseURL = https://example.org/docs/`
```go-html-template
-{{ relURL "" }} → /docs/
-{{ relURL "articles" }} → /docs/articles
-{{ relURL "style.css" }} → /docs/style.css
+{{ relURL "" }} → /docs/
+{{ relURL "articles" }} → /docs/articles
+{{ relURL "style.css" }} → /docs/style.css
+{{ relURL "https://example.org/docs/foo" }} → /docs/foo
```
#### Input begins with a slash
-If the input begins with a slash, the resulting URL will be incorrect when the `baseURL` includes a subdirectory. With a leading slash, the function returns a URL relative to the protocol+host section of the `baseURL`.
+If the input begins with a slash, the resulting URL will be relative to the protocol+host of the `baseURL` in your site configuration.
With `baseURL = https://example.org/`
```go-html-template
-{{ relURL "/" }} → /
-{{ relURL "/articles" }} → /articles
-{{ relURL "style.css" }} → /style.css
+{{ relURL "/" }} → /
+{{ relURL "/articles" }} → /articles
+{{ relURL "/style.css" }} → /style.css
```
With `baseURL = https://example.org/docs/`
```go-html-template
-{{ relURL "/" }} → /
-{{ relURL "/articles" }} → /articles
-{{ relURL "/style.css" }} → /style.css
+{{ relURL "/" }} → /
+{{ relURL "/articles" }} → /articles
+{{ relURL "/style.css" }} → /style.css
```
-{{% note %}}
-The last three examples are not desirable in most situations. As a best practice, never include a leading slash when using this function.
