+ [2016-07-09T23:40:22Z] pjstirling hmm, that's not a very sensible position to take :/
+ [2016-07-09T23:41:08Z] pjstirling I'll look at making a patch that adds a post_url2 tag which does the right thing so backwards compatability is preserved

miklb I expected, when I used post_url in a different post, that it would produce a clickable link, this seemed like its purpose? the unpatched variant doesn't do the right thing :)

+ [2016-07-10T00:27:42Z] jaybe e.g. cdn
+ [2016-07-10T00:29:20Z] pjstirling erm in what sense?
+ [2016-07-10T00:31:59Z] spudowiar pjstirling: don't prepend base url if you're using cdn.example.net instead of example.net
+ [2016-07-10T00:32:09Z] spudowiar pjstirling: where the website is hosted on example.net
