This manual is now only displayed for versions up to to 10.4. Can we have a way to direct people to newer versions of the content, e.g. have a banner at the top.

I googled for something and landed on https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/book-extbasefluid/10.4/en-us/7-Controllers/1-Creating-Controllers-and-Actions.html. It would be great if there was some simple way to get to the documentation for newer TYPO3 versions.

I noticed the problem again:

  1. I was on the v10.4 page "Content Elements & Plugins" since it was the first page which the search results showed
  2. clicked on link "Configuring the Plugin" in the Extbase / Fluid Book
  3. Would now like to switch to version I use (v11 or 12), is not possible

Also, the Includes.rst.txt was not included on some
pages. This was added as well.

The manual is currently only rendered up to 10.4. There
is no version selector to switch to a newer version and
there is not easy way to get to the newer version of a
page unless one starts another search.

While a link on each page to link to newer content of this
page would be preferable (from point of view of the reader),
this is not feasible to do for every page.
However stating where the new content should be ("TYPO3
Explained") might be helpful when searching for it and
adding a link to the respective chapters might be
sufficient.

(Unfortunately, when googling one often ends up on older
pages unless this is specifically prevented by specifying
the versions).

In addition to this, a link to the newer content of the page
might be helpful on some of the pages. Here, it might be a
good idea to check which pages are viewed most frequently.
