thisisnic opened a new pull request, #35103:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/35103

   This PR moves the option to select a different version of the docs from a 
dropdown menu to a link in the footer, which links to an article generated when 
the docs are build, listing the previous versions.
   
   This resolves the problem in #34907 and also fixes #14969 in which the 
JavaScript used in the dropdown interferes with the JavaScript code used for 
the search box (present since the upgrade to BS5).
   
   This change also simplifies the maintenance of the version selection 
functionality, though does remove the ability to navigate directly to the same 
reference page in a different version - overall I think this minor loss of 
functionality is a worthwhile trade for simpler maintenance.
   
   Footer before (note that the author information is already in the sidebar, 
so this is duplication):
