Adding domain to local root settings field add domain after local file system address

[joshuamcf]

I'm assuming the local root setting is to allow me to check relative URLs in a file by defining the domain of those URLs separately. Instead, it's taking that domain and adding it after the local root and before the href {{c:\users\me...}}{{domain}}{{href}}.

I added this to the Local Root settings
https://www.domain.com.au

This is my link
<a href="/podiatrist">podiatrist</a>

The errors comes through as
Local file 'c:\Users\userName\Documents\Content Documents\https:\www.healthdirect.gov.au\podiatrist' does not exist.
