Magento 2.3.4 - Category getImageUrl() returns incorrect value

[jkenneydaniel]

Preconditions (*)

1. Magento 2.3.5-p1 (reproduced only on composer versions)

Steps to reproduce (*)

1. Go to Admin->Catalog->Categories;
2. Create a new category with an image;
3. Go to Storefront and open created before the category

Expected result (*)

1. Category image src uses the full URL

Actual result (*)

1. Category image src is actually just a relative path

Additional Info

When uploading an image to categories, it would be expected that when loaded on the frontend the category image URL is loaded so that when the media URL is set (i.e. for CDN usage) - the full URL is used to load the image. This is not the case however because of a change introduced in commit 3c3acd7 where it attempts to determine the path of the image value either being relative or absolute. Considering the backend model for the image attribute is using what would be considered an absolute path, it is simply returning the value without prepending the media URL to the file path.

Hi @jkenneydaniel. Thank you for your reporting.

Unfortunately, we are not able to reproduce this issue on a fresh 2.4-develop instance.

Manual testing scenario:

1. Add image to category;
2. Go to Storefront-> Category with an image;
3. Open dev tools;

Actual Result: ✔️ Category image src uses the full URL

@jkenneydaniel Could you take a look?
Thanks!

@engcom-Alfa So I see in 2.4 the functionality for the image.phtml was changed to use the Image viewmodel: https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.4-develop/app/code/Magento/Catalog/ViewModel/Category/Image.php

Which means that section no longer uses $category->getImageUrl() - however on 2.3 this is not the case - so I'm a little confused, will this issue not be fixed in 2.3 but rather we'll have to wait until after 2021 for 2.4 release?

@jkenneydaniel The issue is reproducible on Magento 2.3.5-p1 composer version (reproduced only on composer versions).

Actual Result: ✖️ Category image src is actually just a relative path

Hello @nahall,

Thank you for the input.

Verified this on 2.4-develop.
I have modified the template file to call getImageUrl(), as you can see in the below image:

It can be seen that the image is being rendered with relative path.

The getImageUrl() method returns relative path of the image.

Hence this issue can be confirmed.

Thank you.
