I am using Mautic 2.8.2 and facing a strange issue. I have installed mautic in a sub-folder ([www.mydomain.com/m](http://www.mydomain.com/m)) and everything works fine except this issue. The issue is that if I define ‘Site URL’ configuration as [www.mydomain.com/m](http://www.mydomain.com/m) , all links to track emails are generated as they should. but links to form.js has an extra ‘m’ in the url (e.g. [www.mydomain.com/m/m/form.js](http://www.mydomain.com/m/m/form.js)) and therefore my forms do not work. If set the ‘Site URL’ to just the domain name, then forms work but links in the email give a 404 error.  
  
  
  
I know it is small issue but have no idea where to fix it.  
  
  
  
Please help.

I fixed the problem by modifying this function from this

`public function getBaseUrl()
    {
return $this->siteUrl;
    }`

to this

`public function getBaseUrl()
    {
 $url = $this->siteUrl;
        $url_parts = parse_url($url);
        $real_url = $url_parts['scheme'].'://'.$url_parts['host'];
        return $real_url;}
`

Located at …/app/bundles/CoreBundle/Templating/Helper/AssetsHelper.php:139

Console URLs are generated just by appending the siteUrl but asset URLs are generated by guessing the install directory and then pre-prefixing siteUrl to this. I hope Mautic developers will look into that.

It is disappointing that I did not get any response on my post even after 2 days.
