lukaszlenart opened a new pull request, #317:
URL: https://github.com/apache/struts-site/pull/317
## Problem
`source/.htaccess` hardcoded the legacy `/announce.html` redirect to
`/announce-2024.html`, so visitors landed on the 2024 announcements even though
`announce-2025.md` and `announce-2026.md` exist. The line has to be bumped by
hand every January and was missed twice.
## Fix
`.htaccess` now carries empty front matter so Jekyll renders Liquid in it,
and the redirect target is resolved from the newest `announce-*` page at build
time:
```
{% assign announcements = site.pages | where_exp: "page", "page.path
contains 'announce-'" | sort: "path" -%}
RedirectMatch \/announce.html(#a[0-9]+)? {{ announcements.last.url }}$1
```
Adding `source/announce-YYYY.md` for a new year is now enough — the redirect
follows automatically. `CLAUDE.md` and the `announcing-struts-release` skill
were updated to drop the manual step.
## Verification
Built with Jekyll 4.2 in a scratch site seeded with all 25 real `announce-*`
filenames (2002 `.html` … 2026 `.md`). Rendered output:
```
# always points to the most recent announce-YYYY page, no manual update
needed
RedirectMatch \/announce.html(#a[0-9]+)? /announce-2026.html$1
```
The rest of the file is byte-identical to before.
Note: old bookmarks of the form `/announce.html#a1234` still carry their
anchor through and won't resolve on the year page — those anchors only ever
existed on the retired single-page announcements. That was already the case
before this change.
