| Hi Denis,
Thanks for taking care of the marge!
About the latest doc reference, when a new version is released it would be necessary to do 2 things:
1. Update the new version number on the .htaccess file:
RewriteRule ^releases/latest/(.*)$ /releases/1.9.0/$1 [L]
2. Add the following tag to all .html files:
This 2nd step can be done with any simple script. In particular I wrote/use the attached .php scripts which, besides this task, also does other things related to SEO (adding noindex, GA tracking code, etc). It contains some basic comments with instructions.
Anyway, I do volunteer to do these 2 simple steps every time a new release is done.
Best, Mauricio Stekl

Hello Mauricio,Thanks a lot, I’ve reviewed and merged your changes! - Setup rewrite rule on .htaccess so latest API doc can have always the same URL ( for example https://ignite.apache.org/releases/latest/javadoc/<https://ignite.apache.org/releases/latest/javadoc/>) In this case I pointed it to version 1.9.0. This will prevent having to manually change all inbound links every time a new release is done. Also will help search engines to correctly identify the latest documentation that should be listed on results.
Many special thanks for this improvement. I wish we did this earlier.BTW, what we need to do to update this latest doc reference when a new version is rolled out? Could you share the instructions?—DenisOn Mar 10, 2017, at 1:54 PM, Mauricio Stekl <mauri...@gridgain.com> wrote:
Hello Igniters,
I am sending a .patch file attached with some changes related to SEO that I have done to Apache Ignite website.
Here are some details:
- Setup rewrite rule on .htaccess so latest API doc can have always the same URL ( for example https://ignite.apache.org/releases/latest/javadoc/<https://ignite.apache.org/releases/latest/javadoc/>) In this case I pointed it to version 1.9.0. This will prevent having to manually change all inbound links every time a new release is done. Also will help search engines to correctly identify the latest documentation that should be listed on results.
- Added NOINDEX meta tag to all API documentation for versions <= 1.8.0. This will help crawlers to give more page authority to latest version of the doc, and will avoid indexing more than 25.000 URLs.
- Added canonical url tags and GA tracking code to all .html files for 1.9.0.
- Updated some anchor tags on the homepage which were linking to the features using only the icons and not the feature's title text.
- Updated sitemap.xml with 1.9.0 URLs.
- Updated the links on navigation so they point to latest version of API documentation.
I will appreciate if any of the committers could merge this on website’s repo.
Please let me know if you have any question.
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Mauricio Stekl
