I looked into options for resolving that and the easiest solution I found is to exclude all md files from search for all Icerbrg documentation versions, except for the just one, nightly probably being the best candidate as it is a defult landing version of documentation. That can be achieved by adding a mkdocs-material's YAML frontmatter property to md files during the site build process:
