Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
When I need to create a link to an unpublished page, it has always been so that I can send it to someone to view the page, Most often it is someone who doesn't have CMS access. Currently, the link is an "edit." link, so I have to copy and then manually change it to be WWW for my non cms users to use.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Have the link be www. I have never benefited from it being edit.

**Additional context**

Research direction

No source file, test, or implementation entry point is identified. Start by locating where links for unpublished pages are generated and confirm how the current edit link differs from the public www link. Done means an unpublished-page link can be copied and sent to someone without CMS access as a www link.
