I have a wiki library which contents is automatically copied onto another site. Some of the pages in the library contain images, the links to those images are relative.



image: /wiki/images/image.jpg

Now I have a script which exports the wiki and images libraries, and imports them on another site. But on that site, the library is placed in a different subsite:

Now although the images library is in the same subsite as the wiki (like it was on siteA), the images still break. They keep on pointing to /wiki/images/image.jpg instead of /

So now I'm looking for a way to correct this, preferably in a powershell script, since the exporting / importing is done in powershell too. What's a good way of doing this?

Have you tried to use url token.For e.g. {SiteUrl}. I am not sure it work in wiki page –  Amit Kumawat Nov 18 '11 at 16:21

You could try modifying the content from each wiki page through powershell by replacing the old URL with the new one.

The following blog post can help you with it:

$content = $
$content = $content -replace "/wiki/images/", "/subsite/wiki/images/"

For future readers: I created a Powershell script which does the same, but without the need to use the webservices.
