Sidebar

[potatoqualitee]

I love the sidebar for https://dbachecks.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

where we can add other relevant shortcuts like the various related posts (Cms, Xevents, DA, etc)

can we have something similar? merci

[niphlod]

we can but should we ?
It'd be quite hard to inject usefully yet another piece of content in a quite crowded sidebar, dbachecks has not 400ish functions.
Maybe it'd be best to either forge an index of sorts (but IMHO for the moment it's better covered by https://dbatools.io/commands/ , till we 'll have proper tagging ) or linking to such posts via each function's help (so it'll be available also for users not jumping on docs.dbatools.io straight away) ?

What if it were like max 5 URLs? or 3? It is a long sidebar,b ut you take care of it well with tha search filter

Not an "adding problem", it's just "design wise" how to "highlight" links to external resources(if I got that right they'll be blogposts), and how to "relate" them to one or more doc functions. Il gio 4 ott 2018, 10:41 Chrissy LeMaire <notifications@github.com> ha scritto:

Global links will be good - so the same 3-5 will show up every time

[niphlod]

then we can make them fixed in the index.html .... what 3-5 links are, specifically ?

[niphlod]

/cc @potatoqualitee : can you list the 3-5 links so I can create a "mockup" for validation ?
