Description

I've updated the package to 9.00b4. The new search is awesome, thanks!

The view button and footer (previous and next buttons) don't show up after setting the arguments described in #4714.

Do I miss anything?

Thanks for reporting. Did you set repo_url as mentioned in #4714? Also make sure to remove your overrides when reporting issues, because the error might be in them.

I've verified. The following configuration definitely works on the latest beta:

site_name: My Docs
repo_url: https://github.com/squidfunk/mkdocs-material
theme:
  name: material
  features:
    - content.action.edit
    - content.action.view

Closing as not reproducible.

Note
This problem is fixed for me with the official 9.0.0 release. 🥳

Intro

I don't see any new "view source" button. The "edit source" button is visible and working. The navigation footer works (after opting in again).

I've installed the latest mkdocs-material = "==9.0.0b4" beta, and followed these steps in the beta announcement issue:

• Enable edit and view source button: a "view source" button can be shown next to the "edit this page" button, both of which must now be explicitly enabled. The repo_url must also be given. Add the following lines to mkdocs.yml:

  repo_url: ...
  theme:
    features:
      - content.action.edit
      - content.action.view

Removed overrides

Also make sure to remove your overrides when reporting issues, because the error might be in them.

I've deleted the override folder and the override section in the mkdocs.yml file. I already set the repo_url.

Reproduction repository

You can open my branch on GitHub Codespaces to see for yourself. 😉 Here's how:

1. Open my branch in GitHub Codespaces: https://github.com/HonkingGoose/renovatebot.github.io/tree/reproduction-for-material-maintainer
2. Wait for the setup task to complete
3. Run make serve to run the test server
4. Open preview server in browser
5. There's no "view source" button on the homepage

Please try this on a mint installation of 9.0.0b4 and see if the issue persists. If it does, check if you need to update your overrides. View and edit button, as well as the footer definitely work, they are now opt-in however.

If that doesn't work please provide a minimal reproduction. It saves me time trying to get your huge reproduction to work.

Good news: the "edit source" and "view source" buttons work on the official v9 release. 🥳

Yeah that's fair. I could not get a minimal reproduction going for this problem. In any case it's fixed now. 😄

Glad to hear. Note that reproductions are now mandatory for every bug report.
