Description James Flynn 2020-08-03 14:07:18 UTC
SUMMARY
Attempting to launch "Help" from the button in the Settings Dialog launches a browser tab to a 404 Error

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Navigate to Menu->Settings"->"Configure Ocular" Dialog 
2. Select the Help Button at the bottom right of the dialog window.

OBSERVED RESULT
A new web page is opened, quickly resolving to: "https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kdegraphics/okular//okular/configure.html" which results in a 404 Error

EXPECTED RESULT
Web page should display, which would show documentation about the Configure Ocular settings dialog.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

(In reply to Albert Astals Cid from comment #1)
> Just confirm, does Help->Manual work?

Correct, Help -> Manual does work. It launches the URL:
"https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/okular/okular//"

The issue is that on Windows, at least, clicking from the Help button from inside another dialog attempts to open, for instance with the Settings Dialog,
"https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/okular/okular//okular/configure.html"

For reference, the working URLs are 
"https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/okular/okular/configure.html" or even
"https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/okular/okular//configure.html"

I am not clear if this is an issue from the repeated forward slash, but Okular seems to append an extra "okular/" which breaks the URL.
