External URLs resolving to local system

#89 opened by JimInHolland

Description

Using the Pages module and Routing on Construct turned off.

For example, let's say I'm on my site, http://www.currentsite.com (all sites renamed to protect the innocent) and I want to use the External Link to redirect out to Apple's site in the Menu:

Adding an external URL, filling in Name (Apple.com) and External Link (https://www.apple.com) renders

    This code is used in a Bootstrap menu bar.

    Can you provide a code sample for you construct tag output?

    I don't see the {construct:node_link} or {construct:node_external_link} variable in the code sample anywhere. {construct:node_link} will be the node_full_route unless the External Link field has content, in which case it will be the external link. {construct:node_external_link} is always the link field.
