Issue
A Content Item based on Website URL is not accepting an Arabic URL, appearing just an empty content.

Then the Arabic section will be encoded to ASCII codification and, depending on the client machine and browser settings, it may appear as an empty content:
Resolution
In order to avoid getting the full URL encoded:
- Carefully copy the Domain and the path without including the protocol section.
- Paste the address in the field.
This procedure ensures the address is copied as a regular text, avoiding it becoming encoded when pasted in the Content Item page.
