Right now
R API
reference always leads to thelatest
version of R docs. It wasn't a problem in the past, but recently we have started to provide docs for each LightGBM release. So, it's a problem when user browses docs for let sayv3.2.1
version, clicks toR API
and silently gets R docs for themaster
branch.Refer to #4236 (comment).
Live demo for the PR: https://lightgbm.readthedocs.io/en/r_api_docs/. Note that
R API
link (both iat the start page and side navbar) leads to https://lightgbm.readthedocs.io/en/r_api_docs/R/reference/.
