Hi @AugustinMauroy @mcollina 👋,

I’ve added a link to the End-of-life (EOL) releases page (/eol) under the About section in the sidebar, as discussed in issue #8155.
Please review it and let me know if any adjustments are needed.

Thank you!

Thanks @Mohit5Upadhyay . I think it's a bit jarring how we lose the left hand navigation menu

[avivkeller]

Indeed. Can you change EoL's layout to contain the sidebar by making it use the "about" layout

[ovflowd]

Nothing against the PR itself, but I'm against this page becoming part of the /about section.

Indeed. Can you change EoL's layout to contain the sidebar by making it use the "about" layout

this was called out in the initial implementation. we can figure that part out as part of determining if it should be under about at all

[ovflowd]

Approving. But the layout of the EOL page needs to change, otherwise it won't render the Sidebar.

Hi @ovflowd @avivkeller @mikeesto 👋,

Approving. But the layout of the EOL page needs to change, otherwise it won't render the Sidebar.

I’ve updated the PR as per your feedback:

• Changed the layout of the End-of-Life (EOL) page from article to about, so the left-hand sidebar is now rendered correctly.

Updated

Please take a look whenever you get a chance and let me know if anything else needs adjustment.

Thanks again for your guidance! 🙏

[bmuenzenmeyer]

looking good.

note the slight variation of this pattern, because it was not initially within /about/

Hi @bmuenzenmeyer @ovflowd @avivkeller 👋,

can you look for other eol links and update them to /about/eol?

I’ve updated all internal references to use /about/eol for consistency, as suggested.
Also added the redirect rule to ensure existing /eol links continue to work without breaking.

Please have a look whenever you get a chance — let me know if anything else needs adjustment.

Thanks! 🙏

[ovflowd]

SGTM! Great work, thanks for bearing with our reviews :)
