🍿 Minor Changes

  • #2261 778b743 Thanks @shubham-padia! - Adds support for using any of Starlight’s built-in icons in asides.

  • #3272 e7fe267 Thanks @delucis! - Adds a new generateId option to Starlight’s docsLoader()

    This enables overriding the default sluggifier used to convert content filenames to URLs.

  • #3276 3917b20 Thanks @delucis! - Excludes banner content from search results

    Previously, content set in banner in page frontmatter was indexed by Starlight’s default search provider Pagefind. This could cause unexpected search results, especially for sites setting a common banner content on multiple pages. Starlight’s default Banner component is now excluded from search indexing.

    This change does not impact Banner overrides using custom components.

  • #3266 1161af0 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Adds support for custom HTML attributes on autogenerated sidebar links using the autogenerate.attrs option.

  • #3274 80ccff7 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Fixes an issue where some Starlight remark and rehype plugins were transforming Markdown and MDX content in non-Starlight pages.

    ⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE:

    Previously, some of Starlight’s remark and rehype plugins, most notably the plugin transforming Starlight’s custom Markdown syntax for rendering asides, were applied to all Markdown and MDX content. This included content from individual Markdown pages and content from content collections other than the docs collection used by Starlight.

    This change restricts the application of Starlight’s remark and rehype plugins to only Markdown and MDX content loaded using Starlight’s docsLoader(). If you were relying on this behavior, please let us know about your use case in the dedicated #starlight channel in the Astro Discord or by opening an issue.

🐞 Patch Changes

  • #3266 1161af0 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Ensures invalid sidebar group configurations using the attrs option are properly reported as a type error.

    Previously, invalid sidebar group configurations using the attrs option were not reported as a type error but only surfaced at runtime. This change is only a type-level change and does not affect the runtime behavior of Starlight which does not support the attrs option for sidebar groups.

  • #3274 80ccff7 Thanks @HiDeoo! - Prevents Starlight remark and rehype plugins from transforming Markdown and MDX content when using the Astro renderMarkdown() content loader API.
