Continuous Redirect Loop in Documentation URLs When Changing Phalcon Version

[andihoerudin24]

I found an issue or bug in the Phalcon documentation at https://docs.phalcon.io/4.2/db-phql/.
When I change the version to 4.2 directly from the URL, for example, https://docs.phalcon.io/3.7/db-phql/ and then press enter, the browser will encounter an error with continuous redirects, like this: https://docs.phalcon.io/3.7/db-phql/latest/latest/latest/latest/latest/latest/latest/.

Yep, I also faced with similar issue.
It seems when we have this: https://docs.phalcon.io/wrong_number/db-phql/ or this https://docs.phalcon.io/empty_value/db-phql/ in url, route is not found and we have continuous redirect loop.

Reproducible even without version change just by clicking on the link to any non-existing URL with version number (i.e. old docs of new functionality #191 ).

I.e. you click on https://docs.phalcon.io/3.7/db-phql/ link it will be reproduced but it will not if you click on https://docs.phalcon.io/5.7/db-phql/ .
If you click on https://docs.phalcon.io/something-12345 it will correctly redirect to https://docs.phalcon.io/latest/introduction but the bug will be reproduced if you click on https://docs.phalcon.io/3.7/something-12345 .

This one I am still trying to figure it out.

In the past we could just put a redirect with a wildcard on the docs page and it will sort things out on its own.

With the new versioned deployment of our docs (using mike), GitHub actions creates the content (the final HTML files) and Cloudflare just uploads it, hence there are no redirects there.

I am thinking to remove the latest part from the docs and leave it only for Cloudflare to deal with.

Sorry for taking so long, this is not as easy to fix as before.
