When PR preview builds use a subdirectory baseURL like /docs-v2/pr-preview/pr-XXXX/, shortcodes that parse .RelPermalink to detect product context fail because the path has extra segments. This fix: - Adds config/pr-preview/params.yml with prPreviewPathOffset: 3 - Updates workflow to use -e pr-preview environment - Updates api-endpoint, influxdb/host, and children shortcodes to use the offset when indexing path segments - Adds nil-safety with default fallback for placeholder_host Normal builds are unaffected (offset defaults to 0).
Apply the same prPreviewPathOffset fix to product-name.html and sidebar.html that was applied in the initial PR #6665. These templates parse RelPermalink to detect product context, but when baseURL includes a subdirectory path (e.g., /docs-v2/pr-preview/pr-XXXX/), the path indices shift. This fix uses the configurable offset to skip extra path segments in PR preview builds.
Fork PRs cannot deploy to gh-pages because GITHUB_TOKEN has read-only access to the base repository. This is a GitHub security feature. Changes: - Add condition to skip preview job for fork PRs - Add fork-notice job to post helpful comment explaining limitation - Include local preview instructions for contributors
