It depends on what your "base" URL is.  Can you email me a link to a
web page in SharedWiki?

The thing is, I publish all of my files into directories on the same
level, like:

ProjectsWiki -> ~/personal-site/site/projects, prefix: "../projects"
WebWiki -> ~/personal-site/site/wiki, prefix: "../wiki"

The following gets set automatically in my .emacs file by doing "M-x
customize-variable planner-custom-variables".

'(planner-custom-variables (quote ((emacs-wiki-project-server-prefix .
"../plans/"))))

For emacs-wiki-journal, I customize `emacs-wiki-journal-server-prefix'
to be "../blog".

When you have things at different directory levels, you can't easily
use relative links, AFAICT.
