Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
PR previews only work for branches on `origin`, not for forks.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Every PR for a front-end site should generate a PR preview.
**Additional context**
Example of a PR with a preview (notice the branch name & the preview link under "Checks"):
- https://github.com/aws-amplify/docs/pull/1183
Example of a PR without a preview (notice the forked branch name & how "Checks" doesn't have a preview):
- https://github.com/aws-amplify/docs/pull/1201
Contributor guide
Research direction
No files or tests are identified. Start by tracing how PR previews are configured for origin branches, then compare the linked example with the forked example and inspect the Checks results. Done means every pull request for a front-end site, including pull requests from forks, receives a working preview.
