title: drupal prepending 'node' to the link url
body: <p>I am working on a drupal site. The current issue is that when a link is created either by using the <code>url()</code> or the <code>base_path</code> variable, it works ok on local development environment but when the very same code is put on the server, the url prepends <code>node</code> string in the path. </p>
  
  <p>e.g. the path is <code>&lt;drupal site&gt;/latestnews</code> . The generated path is <code>&lt;drupal site&gt;/node/latestnode</code> and when clicked, it shows the <code>page not found</code> error. However would like to mention that the links work fine (i.e generate correct path) when clicked from the home page. </p>
  
  <p>any help would be appreciated. If it helps, I am using Pantheon hosting for testing. </p>
