• [x] I am using Fish shell version 3.1 or higher. (3.1.2)

• [x] I am using Python version 3.6 or higher. (3.8.3)

• [x] I have searched the issues (including closed ones) and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• [ ] If related to a plugin, I prefixed the issue title with the name of the plugin. (n/a)

• OS version and name: macOS 10.14.6

• Fish shell version: 3.1.2

• VirtualFish version: 2.3.0

Issue

Running vf help includes a link to the main documentation:

$ vf --help
VirtualFish 2.3.0

[… output truncated …]

For full documentation, see: https://virtualfish.readthedocs.org/en/2.3.0/

If I visit https://virtualfish.readthedocs.org/en/2.3.0/, I get an error page: “Maze Found: Sorry, this page does not exist yet”. The readthedocs.io site (linked from the README) works for me.

I’d submit a patch, but I’m not sure if (1) the URL is meant to work and this is an RTD error or (2) the URL has changed and needs to be updated in the help message.

Thanks for the heads-up, Alex. I manually activated that version, so that URL should now resolve properly.

I wish the ReadTheDocs and GitHub integration were more reliable — it's a constant source of frustration. In this case, new release versions were not being activated (for reasons that are still unclear), so I went to Admin > Automation Rules and created a rule that should activate new versions automatically upon release. Hopefully that will prevent this problem in the future.
