Describe the issue

Here is a dummy project as an example: Files:

• conf.py
• example.ipynb
• index.rst

conf.py:

html_show_sourcelink = True
project = u'dummy'

extensions = [
    'nbsphinx',
]

source_suffix = '.rst'

master_doc = 'index'

html_theme = 'sphinx_book_theme'

example.ipynb:

index.rst:
