`timedot`/`timeclock` manuals missing from v1.21 and later

[Will Badart]

Hey team-

Just noticed that https://hledger.org/1.21/timedot.html gives a blank page. Turning to the network tab in my browser dev tools shows the page is missing:

Maybe this issue is more about establishing an informative 404 page; not sure if mdbook has support for this out of the box, but it might help readers navigate out of the above situation in the future.

Thanks!

Thanks for the report!

It took me quite a while to remember that these were merged into hledger.html as of 1.21. Did a link lead you to this url ?

I agree the 404 page should be improved.

I have added redirects:

# never-existed content that some people try
redir /1.21/journal.html       /hledger.html#journal-format
redir /1.21/csv.html           /hledger.html#csv-format
redir /1.21/timeclock.html     /hledger.html#timeclock-format
redir /1.21/timedot.html       /hledger.html#timedot-format
redir /1.22/journal.html       /hledger.html#journal-format
redir /1.22/csv.html           /hledger.html#csv-format
redir /1.22/timeclock.html     /hledger.html#timeclock-format
redir /1.22/timedot.html       /hledger.html#timedot-format

and generic HTTP error pages.

Did a link lead you to this url ?

Yup, it was the version selection link at the very top of the page.

Redirects are working as expected on my end. Thanks for the quick turnaround!

Leaving open as redirects are a workaround; in site.js, old journal/csv/timeclock/timedot manuals should link to hledger.html for 1.21+.
