Passing product properties to an <a href> not working in published theme.

[Dobberboats]

So I have a webshop with a 3D Configurator. The configured

state is saved in a URL when it is added to cart so the customer can take a look at what they configured later on if needed. This URL is very wide and messes up the Cart page.

So I want the URL to be <a href> 

The issue is that my code works when the theme is not published. As soon as I publish the theme my fix no longer works. I can't figure out why its not working. 

Screenshot 1: Published Theme

Screenshot 2: Unpublished Theme: 

Piece of code that catches the url: 

      {%- assign property_size = product.properties | size -%}
      {%- if property_size > 0 -%}
        {%- for p in product.properties -%}
          {%- assign first_character_in_key = p.first | truncate: 1, '' -%}
          {%- unless p.last == blank or first_character_in_key == '_' -%}
            {{ p.first }}:  
            
            {%- if p.last contains 'tdaState' -%}
              <a href="{{ p.last }}"> Config</a>
            {%- else -%}
              {{ p.last }}
            {%- endif -%}

            <br>
          {%- endunless -%}
        {%- endfor -%}
      {%- endif -%}

Code from cart-item.liquid (Motion Theme):

<div class="cart__item" data-key="{{ product.key }}">
<div class="cart__item--image" data-aos>
<a href="{{ product.url }}" class="image-wrap" style="display: block; height: 0; padding-bottom: {{ 100 | divided_by: product.image.aspect_ratio }}%;">
{%- assign img_url = product | img_url: '1x1' | replace: '_1x1.', '_{width}x.' -%}
<img class="lazyload"
data-src="{{ img_url }}"
