Version selector not working in 2.1.0rc1

[dylanh724]

I don't believe this one needs too many details: If you RTD build with 2.1.0rc1 in any scenario, your bottom-left version selector will be missing.

Just a heads up! Downgrading back to 2.0.0 fixed it.

Hi @dylanh724 👋🏼 . Do you have Read the Docs Addons enabled on your project? https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/addons.html#enabling-read-the-docs-addons

Note that we are in the middle of a transition (https://about.readthedocs.com/blog/2024/07/addons-by-default/), and I think you are hitting the expected behavior here: no flyout with the latest rc version of the theme and without addons enabled.

Can you confirm us if it does work as expected when using 2.1.0rc1 and having the addons enabled in your project?

What's the URL of your project on Read the Docs?

Hi,

• I can confirm that in v2.0.0, enabling the flyout brings the version selector back (floating).
• Going back to v2.1.0rc1 and following your guide, it now shows both the bottom-left version selector and the flyout:

I'm going to assume if I turn off flyout, all will be resolved (just needed that addon enabled? I would've had no clue whew).

This is the live site that has the rc1 theme with NO version selector (expected bottom-left selector), before I activated the addon instructions (I haven't rebuilt).

What's interesting is that you can actually see where the bottom-left version selector is supposed to be. If you scroll down the sticky navbar, you can see the chunk of space reserved for it:

Going back to v2.1.0rc1 and following your guide, it now shows both the bottom-left version selector and the flyout:

This is the expected behavior for now. We are working on a PR that will allow users to disable the flyout from the theme and only leave the addons flyout or vice-versa.

We just released 2.1.0rc2 that adds a theme option flyout_display. By default it's hidden, so you won't have 2 flyouts when building on Read the Docs and having addons enabled. @dylanh724 Can you please give it a try and confirm it's working fine for you?
