What?
#51477 introduced template swap UX, but in doing so it broke the default template lookup. Details and screenshots of the issue can be found in the issue here but the heart of the issue was that requests to the API were including the permalink instead of the slug, so for example, it tried to lookup the slug
page-http://xxxxxinstead ofpage-slug.Why?
This restores the correct template for pages and avoids them defaulting to "pages" template, even if custom templates are in place.
How?
This replaces the
linkproperty with the correctslugproperty.Testing Instructions
https://store.local/wp-json/wp/v2/templates/lookup?slug=page-https%3A%2F%2Fstore.local%2Fcart%2F&_locale=useror similar. After this patch you'll see the correct lookup address ofhttps://store.local/wp-json/wp/v2/templates/lookup?slug=page-cart%2F&_locale=useror similar. Note theslugparameter is fixed.
