…est config The sidebar_htmltest.rb plugin was generating HTML test files for all versions, including those marked as ignored in .htmltest.yml. This caused htmltest failures for archived versions that have sidebar-data files but include CockroachCloud links that don't exist. Changes: - Read .htmltest.yml to identify ignored version directories - Skip generating sidebar HTML test files for ignored versions - Add logging to show which versions are being skipped This ensures that only versions actually tested by htmltest have corresponding sidebar test files generated.

This is great overall! We're very close, please:
- Remove the LLM-generated script that hacks some SSL settings
- Remove the newly introduced cross-version links in some of the later versions
- Add the zip archive of v2.1 to the 'Archived Documentation' page - right now it's missing. Although if you prefer to do that in another PR that also works

interesting, I don't think end.compact is valid Ruby syntax, but it does pass ruby -c 🤔

please remove this, it doesn't belong in src/current - if there's a scripts directory somewhere you want to stash this away in for the EduEng team to use that's totally fine ofc. This looks like LLM noise to silence an SSL error

When I look at the rendered preview of the 'Archived Documentation' page v2.1 is not there. Do you still need to make the zip archive and upload it and then edit that page to add a link? Or were you planning to do that in a separate PR?

Please don't introduce more cross version links. The right fix is to link to images/v21.1/dbeaver-01-select-cockroachdb.png - if it's not there, please create that folder and copy that image there.

same comment here re: please don't introduce new cross-version links. I don't want to leave a comment on every single instance in this PR, please check with grep or similar to make sure we're not adding more cross-version links to other versions. The right fix for these instances is in my previous comment

same as above re: please don't introduce more cross-version linking, please fix by creating the v21.2 images directory and copying the images there. This stinks but it will make the future cross-version link removal PRs easier
