Version links broken on 'latest'

Postby boarchuz » Thu Feb 06, 2020 12:28 am

Using the 'Read The Docs' popup menu to select a different version of the IDF docs on any page seems to fall back to the root https://www.espressif.com/en/support/download/documents page.

Take the 'latest' HTTP server page, for example: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... erver.html
The link to 'release-v3.3' is "https://docs.espressif.com/en/release-v3.3/", which is not only invalid (a valid root url would be https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... ease-v3.3/) but doesn't even try to link to the 'HTTP server' page as expected.

Actually this is a little more complex than I first realised. Perhaps it only affects 'latest'...
Opening https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... erver.html will cause the bug, however opening https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... erver.html is fine (and I can even switch to 'latest' and then to any other version without problems - does the popup menu not reload?).

Oh yeah I see now in the Chromium log, for 'latest' only:

Code: Select all

Error loading Read the Docs footer
error @ readthedocs-doc-embed.js:1
Ironically, the "Submit documentation feedback to us." link on the page it redirects to (https://www.espressif.com/en/support/download/documents) is dead.

Thanks for letting us know. Because the RTD servers are slow to access from China (and their CDN doesn't have China coverage), we maintain a transparent caching reverse proxy for the ESP-IDF documentation.

In this case it looks like an RTD update changed the API URL, so the proxy stopped working.

This should be fixed now (may require a ignore-caches-reload with Shift-F5 or similar). Please let us know if you see any more problems.

Thanks for letting us know about this as well, will get it fixed ASAP.

"View page source" links are broken throughout latest
eg. https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... index.html currently links to https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... ig.rst.txt instead of the expected github.com/...

Also the Sphinx "theme" link in the footer is broken.

Hi boarchuz,

A fix to broken link to "View page source" should be soon pushed to GitHub.
I will follow up on the the other issues.

Thank you for pointing all these issues!

Sorry, i dont want to hijack this topic, but there is more broken links on github:
- 1st link in this readme:
https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/bl ... /README.md
- 1st link here:
https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/bl ... e-analysis

I cant find one readme where is about 10 links to https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... index.html API and all broken.

Hi boarchuz,

Thank you for being patient with us. I will fix this one as well.

Hi chegewara,

We do not have automatic testing of links of readme files in https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... r/examples but will get to this one as well. Thank you for hijacking this topic. I am always happy to hear from you :)
