 * This may be an issue specifically with my host, but perhaps someone else has 
   run into this issue before.
 * I have a defined constant in my `wp-config.php` file setting the URL (and path)
   to my wp-content and wp-content/uploads directories.
 * In my admin, both Woocommerce and Advance Custom Fields are pointing their assets
   to a full path rather than my defined URL.
 * Rather than:
 * `<link rel='stylesheet' id='acf-global-css' href='http://mywebsite.com/wp-content/
   plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro/assets/css/acf-global.css?ver=5.2.7' type='
   text/css' media='all' />`
 * I’m getting the following:
 * `<link rel='stylesheet' id='acf-global-css' href='http://mywebsite.com/wp-content/
   plugins/absolute/path/to-wp-content-dir/wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-
   pro/assets/css/acf-global.css?ver=5.2.7' type='text/css' media='all' />`
 * Where `/absolute/path/to-wp-content-dir/` is my defined `WP_CONTENT_DIR` but 
   the entire URL should be my `WP_CONTENT_URL`.
 * This is happening on a Webfaction shared hosting environment.
