MkDocs yaml issue with custom_dir theme option comment

[humitos]

This is not a real PR but a way to mark in the code where the problem is and do not forget about this issue. Although, Maybe is a non-issue.

Just want to reflect that the behavior changed in this PR #4041 and it could affect some configs at some point.

I found this while researching about a project with a custom MkDocs theme where the content of the output was not included with MkDocs 0.17 but it was with 0.15

Just to clarify here, this problem occurs when somebody is following the old deprecated way to specify a theme directory but using the latest MkDocs. If they use theme_dir it should be ok, right (538413c#diff-ccc6f61d1c02f524ab7362ee8749ba4bR202)?

This problem occurs when somebody has a config like:

theme:
    custom_dir: mytheme
    # no theme name

Correct?

Has this been fixed w/our recent mkdocs doc updates?

@humitos ^^? Can this be closed?

[ericholscher]

Closing, as I believe this issue has been addressed elsewhere.

I'm sorry. I had not a chance to take a look at this again and make the proper QA.

We didn't have any new report around mkdocs with this issue in the end and I'm fine closing this.
