Can I either:

1. Edit the validation to include the www. protocol as valid (ideal solution)
2. Or filter the validation text, to include "Ensure URL begins with https://" (workaround)

Currently if you add a link that starts with www. it just says this is an invalid link, which is confusing.

Hello,

1. You can create a custom validation function to validate URL on your own.

2. Use the validation URL with a custom message.

Please follow the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/validation/
