site_url() not returning the right address

  • Hi,

    I have a WP site installed in <mydomain.com>/testing and filled with this address all related fields in Settings->General.

    When I execute site_url() in my functions.php, it returns only the main address <mydomain.com> and not the full <mydomain.com>/testing (where WP is installed).

    Any clue?

    Thanks
    Fabio

  • Hi, @fmarzocca

    The site_url template tag retrieves the site url for the current site.

    please taka a look…

    Yes, I would not have opened this thread without having first read whatever needs for it. Thank you, anyway.

    From the docs:The “Site Address (URL)” setting is the address you want people to type in their browser to reach your WordPress blog.
    The “WordPress Address (URL)” setting is the address where your WordPress core files reside.

    In my settings, both of these addresses are in the form https://<mydomain.com>/testing/, but the function only returns: https/<mydomain.com>.

    In the codex page of the function, it is reported that the output should be:
    Output: https://www.example.com or https://www.example.com/wordpress

    …but in my case this is not true. It only reports https://www.example.com, even if the wordpress code and the site are in https://www.example.com/wordpress

    Have Site URl and Home URl are updated in Database?

    In the DB under option “siteurl” specifically, this is where the function gets its data. The function’s return is filterable, so a plugin or theme can alter what the function returns. If you deactivated all plugins and switched to one of the twenty* themes, you’ll find that site_url() returns the correct value.

    Begin incrementally restoring your site’s original configuration. When the returned value becomes incorrect again, the last activated code is the culprit.
