DOC: NumPy logo and favicon not loading in devdocs

[Mukulikaa]

I had a look in the developer console and it shows the paths for the images as https://numpy.org/devdocs/_static/_static/favicon/favicon.ico and https://numpy.org/devdocs/_static/_static/numpylogo.svg.

There is an extra _static in the paths. I am not sure in which file these paths are defined. If someone can guide me to it, I can look into the issue.

I checked the developer console of devdocs. The path mentioned for logo is _static/_static/numpylogo.svg, but there is only one _static path inside it, and other than that, the logo image is missing in the whole source code, inside sources of developer console, but after filtering out "logo" in the network section, there is a numpylogo.svg, which is a 404 page svg.

Hi @manasux, the files do exist at doc/source/_static and you can see them rendered here and here.

I tried commenting out this line in doc/source/conf.py and it solves the problem. But I'm not sure if it's the right way to do it 🙂.

Edit: It seems to be an issue with Sphinx which has been solved in a newer release - sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/9438

Thanks for chasing that down, @Mukulikaa - let's talk about this in the docs meeting.

SciPy has solved this in scipy/scipy#14417- we should probably do something similar.

Looks like dependabot fixed this for us - https://numpy.org/devdocs/ is now showing the logo and favicon again.
