* Hi,
* Thanks good plugin!
* Ultimate TinyMCE contains relative path names.
* `../../../../wp-content/plugins/ultimate-tinymce/img/normal.png`
* But they may cause problems.
Because It’s not always true that WordPress is
installed in root directory.
* If WordPress was installed in `www.eample.com/blog/`, images will disappear in
setting panel.

* I modified main.php to correct this issue and shared it.

* Thank you very very much!! I didn’t think about that when writing the code.
* I am going to make your adjustments to my new `main.php` file, since I just rewrote
it to include language localization support. And I will most certainly give you
credit in the update changelog.
* So, were the only places you did this is in the image calls?
* For example, this:
* ```
function jwl_fontselect_callback_function() {
echo ' ';
?> ';
?>So, were the only places you did this is in the image calls?
* I also modified following lines.
* Line 106-108
* ```

$siteurl = get_option('siteurl');
$url = $siteurl . '/wp-content/plugins/' . basename(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/admin_panel.css';
```
* to
* `$url = plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) . 'admin_panel.css';`
* You should not hardcode plugin directory path.
Because users can change it easily.
* I use `plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ )` many times.
You put no variable definitions
in the global scope. I respect it.
