Title: Offline help does not allow navigating to subsequent pages
Post by: Ger on May 05, 2025, 07:19:38 PM
I have installed offline help (downloaded today: the file application.min.2025.3.2.js is visible in \webroot\help\; all other folders/files are listed as well). 
Edit > Preferences > Application is configured for offline help (yes)

When opening the help (using F1 or the menu option), the main/first page is displayed correctly. When navigating to a next page in the help, an Error 404 message is displayed.

Any idea what can cause this/

Frankly, I have not used the offline help in a long time.
It's built as part of the IMatch built process and has about 5 downloads per year! With 5 downloads per year, it's not worth much of my time, sorry.

I have made quite a number of changes to the help system to make the Google bot more happier, maybe this has broken something in the offline help version. Open a bug report and I will schedule a time slot to look into this.

Just in case: which browser do you use?

I'm using Firefox - and I guess I am accountable for all 5 downloads :)

I use the offline help as standard, useful when on a trip (I will be offline for 3 weeks as of Saturday)
