I have trouble with a multi language site and links

The issue

When editing the content of a text-block, the editor adds links to pages that look like this: https://example.com/de/@/page/NIHb6VZafWPPLDoA. These links do not resolve to anything, despite pointing to an existing page.

Previously created links, with an older version of Kirby look like this: https://example.com/@/page/NIHb6VZafWPPLDoA. These links resolve to their target.

Apparently, at some point, Kirby started adding the language to the URLs in front of the “@”, which seems to be causing this problem?

The Setup

I am guessing Kirby has trouble with the 'url' => '/' preference in the de.php file? However the client realls wants to have German as the default language and no ‘/de/’ in their German URLs.

<?php

return [
    'code' => 'de',
    'default' => true,
    'direction' => 'ltr',
    'locale' => [
        'LC_ALL' => 'de_DE.UTF-8'
    ],
    'name' => 'Deutsch',
    'url' => '/'
];

My Question

Is this a bug, or am I using Kirby wrong? How do I need to configure it to make it generate working links in texts edited in the panel? How should I go about solving this or building a workaround until the bug is fixed?

Thanks!

Solution: Update Kirby to 4.8.0 or later. The bug was fixed.
