<a href="<perch:content type="text" id="url" title="true" label="URL Path" help="Example: julia-arata-fratta/">"

I'm not sure what you need to do. Are you creating pages through Perch and want to automatically generate a link to a page?

If you just want people to type in a URL then you will want Perch Content tags for the link and the anchor text - the text people click on to visit the link.

<a href="<perch:content type="text" id="url" title="true" label="URL Path" help="Example: julia-arata-fratta/">"><perch:content type="text" id="anchortext" label="Link Text"></a>

Thanks I figured it out.

https://solutions.grabaperch.com/templates/correcting-external-links-with-replace

coming from this

<a href="https://<perch:content id="url" type="text" label="Your website" replace="https://|" />">

to This.
