 Hello everyone,

 I'm facing a issue regarding WordPress admin URL generation. I don't know
 if it's a bug but  this problem is affecting one of the plugins
 (Elementor) we use in our multisite network setup with nested urls.

 By nested urls I mean our structure is like this:
 example.com/my-site
 example.com/my-site/my-sub-site
 example.com/my-site/my-sub-site/another-sub-site

 I found that Elementor is using the below WordPress method to generate the
 admin url when loading the Editor:

 {{{
 Requests_IDNAEncoder::encode( get_admin_url() );
 }}}

 The problem happens when the "get_admin_url()" address is larger than 64
 chars, we are presented with an error 500 loading Elementor editor, the
 error presented is "Provided string is too long".

 This issue is causing a lot of headaches in the university I work for,
 because we have a lot of sub sites using Elementor and people are not able
 to edit those pages.

 I already opened a ticket on Elementor as you can check
 here[https://github.com/elementor/elementor/issues/13789], but assuming
 this is a core WordPress method I think it would be good to ask for some
 help here too.

 Glad for any help.
