Cassandra Targett commented on SOLR-15556:
------------------------------------------

Thanks Houston!

bq. For the path corrections, we should be able to have automatic redirects...

I think you're talking about the 1200 inter-page links that need to be checked 
that I mentioned? If so, we won't need to redirect. These are links between 
pages, like pageA.adoc has a link to pageB.adoc. Currently we define these 
links with brackets, like {{<< >>}}, but when the pages are in different 
components, they need to be defined with an {{xref}} instead. This doesn't 
change anything about the pages themselves - the "path corrections" are only in 
the references to the pages.

(However, the URLs _will_ change for Antora generally to include the component 
name, and for that perhaps we try to do a redirect of some kind, but it could 
be complex.)

bq. Is it possible to get rid of the duplication of category names?

Yes, for sure - that's what I meant at the end of my comment when I said we'd 
be able to get rid of ~20 pages. The duplication is coming because we have a 
section name which is a link, and in our site today we have an actual HTML page 
for that. But we would be able to drop that convention if we want to.

I took a little break from this, and the alpha-8 release of Antora 3.0.0 has 
been released. I'll update my branch to use that, but at some point I probably 
need to make a list of what we need to figure out still. And I'm not sure if 
I'm truly suggesting yes, let's use this instead yet or not.

> The final step of my grand vision for redesigning the Ref Guide is to look at 
> replacing Jekyll with a different static site generator.
> The primary reason why is because Jekyll is designed for blog posts, not for 
> sites with hundreds of static pages like ours. Back in 2017 when I chose it, 
> it was relatively straightforward to implement, a lot of information was 
> available in Jekyll docs and the internet in general to customize it, and it 
> was one of the few that supported Asciidoc format. 
> However now there are a lot more options, including some which are 
> specifically designed for large multi-version documentation sites like the 
> Ref Guide.
> Included with this will be reorganizing the on-disk organization of the ref 
> guide files themselves.
