Current behavior

I am currently hosting Plane in a specific work environment that requires me to host the backend on a different subdomain. After checking the .env.example file, I noticed the "NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL" variable and set it to my backend's URL. However, it seems like changing that variable and recreating the container doesn't change anything (when I try to login for instance): the request is always sent to the current domain.
I'm using the prebuilt images from Docker Hub.

Steps to reproduce

Start a Docker container with the makeplane/plane-frontend:latest image, with the NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL set to any different URL from the one the container is started on
Check the network tab from your console to see the request is not sent to the correct URL.
