Description

### Bug description

In the plugin documentation clicking on the navigation link "Using Alternate Output Directory" (under Examples), results in 404.

Unfortunately there is a person on SO that is looking specifically for this information. :(

Research direction

Open the Maven site URL and inspect the Examples navigation entry for "Using Alternate Output Directory". Trace that link to the corresponding plugin documentation source, then restore or add the missing page so the link no longer returns 404 and the alternate output directory information is available.
