🪲 Description

Since deploying #2441 to production, the 'path' field expects the content not to have a URL base set, but we use one everywhere else:

this doesn't work:

you have to do this to get a preview to render:

This was difficult to pick up on staging because there is no base set.

Ah, hmm. I mentioned this change in the PR. Local dev looks like production. I didn't realize staging looked so different.

To be honest, I feel like the long URLs everywhere have to go. They make the page look incredibly busy:

I suppose you copied and pasted the example URL into the Path box and expected it to render. Is that right?

If so, I wonder if this can be made clearer. I have an idea about a possible solution.

Reverting the behavior is a possibility too.

After discussing offline we decided to hold off on changing this given the changes in #2496 will wipe out this part of the workflow.
