Do you have a repo you could share?

You've hit a (known) Hugo issue with mounting data. In short, use the data component folder on project level.

So, put /themes/my-doks-theme/data/docs-versions.yml in /data/ and you should be fine.

Aside) The themes folder structure will be dropped in one of the next releases in favor of using the project-level folders, for that seems more intuitive — and robust

i did in my local environmet i removed data folder nothing changed
i still keep getting the same error

and i tryed to clone the doks again and after running the npm run dev for the first time without coding and stoped the server, i tried to run npm run build

... and i got the same error

I cannot reproduce your issue. It works — locally — OK for me:

PS D:\TEST\doks-1096> npm run build && npm run preview

> jsonverse@1.2.7 build
> exec-bin node_modules/.bin/hugo/hugo --minify

I guess your build fails while deploying to GitHub pages — your workflow file is installing Hugo. Don't do that — Hyas does that for you. This is a much simpler, working example workflow file:

https://github.com/h-enk/doks-gh-pages/blob/master/.github/workflows/deploy-github.yml

Aside) I'm working on the new, updated docs — available soon

What if you run npm run clean:build && npm run build?

You have a local problem.

• Did you try npm run clean && npm run i && npm run build?
• Does it work on GitHub pages?

it worked on github pages right but now well too some pages when you open it's without scss and i fixed something about the versions when i open the versions on the page he give me an error

also when the Github action try to run npm run build i don't see any errors

you made me now start thinking that the problem is on my device
